Resumen
Nursing, like any job, has its inherent risks. But in nursing, more than other fields, risks present themselves on a daily basis, and the impact of these risks can have serious consequences. It is critically important then for nurses to be aware of the risks around them, and be well equipped to deal with them in the best way possible. This essential programme provides a framework for management of risks; from identification and assessment, to potential solutions, and a risk management plan. It then examines common areas of risk for nursing professionals; from infection control and manual handling, to medication errors, IV therapy, and patient identification.

Resumen
Wound management is one of the cornerstones of good nursing care. Effective wound care extends far beyond the application of the wound dressing. Nurses and nursing assistants may be required to assess, plan, implement and evaluate wound care. In order to fulfil these roles, it's critical to have an understanding of the several basic procedures involved in wound care. In this programme we examine skin anatomy, the classification of wounds, wound procedures, wound dressings, and documentation. Knowledge in each of these areas will allow nurses and nursing assistants to make well informed decisions about wound care and ultimately play an active part in promoting wound healing.

At some point in their careers, most nurses and nursing assistants will care for patients at risk of developing pressure ulcers. Pressure ulcers are distressing, debilitating and difficult to manage. Yet in many cases pressure ulcers are readily preventable. In this programme we see how understanding the causes and staging of pressure ulcers can lead to improved management. We also determine the best ways to assess a patient's risk of developing them, and discuss preventative actions like correct positioning and turning, measures that can be taken to protect skin integrity, and early intervention and treatment options.

Resumen
A high percentage of elderly people in professional care suffer from dementia, a psychiatric illness or a specific brain injury. Recently, extensive research has been undertaken into understanding the origins of behaviours of concern, focusing on addressing the variety of underlying causes. In this programme we investigate defining and understanding behaviours of concern, types of behaviours and unmet needs, assessing and problem solving, possible triggers and management strategies. Systematic approaches to the identification of triggers and instigation of problem solving techniques can significantly reduce this increasingly widespread condition.

Resumen
Urinary and faecal incontinence can be one of the most stigmatising and embarrassing disabilities to afflict both men and women in society today. The cost to the individual can be measured in loss of confidence, embarrassment, social isolation, relationship stress and breakdown, laundering costs and costs of continence products. However there is hope for individuals afflicted with incontinence. New therapies, products and appliances, and building design can all assist the individual. This programme examines management strategies to assist individuals and their carers to maintain dignity and independence. Presented by continence expert Jennifer Hilakari, it includes clear explanations of types of incontinence (stress urge, functional, overflows and enuresis, and faecal) and strategies to assist. An instructive and motivating program for health students.
