title: The principles of pressure sore prevention.
abstract: In the first Practice Profile to be published in Nursing Standard, Debbie Quinn demonstrates how studying a Continuing Education reader helped to develop an area of clinical practice--the prevention of pressure sores. Continuing Education Readers are made up of between four and six CPD (previously CE) articles and Debbie based her Profile on one of these. We will be publishing further Practice Profiles related to CPD articles.
