Reducing Incidence and Prevalence of Hospital-Acquired Pressure Ulcers at Genesis Medical Center

摘要

Genesis Medical Center-Davenport (GMC), a 502-bed hospital located on two campuses in Davenport, Iowa, evolved from the consolidation of two similarly sized community not-for-profit predecessors in 1994. It is the largest hospital campus within Genesis Health System (GHS), which offers a full continuum of care, including preventive, primary, acute, and tertiary hospital care; home health and nursing home care; hospice; rehabilitation; and long term care.
