My Root Cause Analysis (RCA) presentation topic is Facility Acquired Pressure Ulcers. You can add what ever type of scenario you like (for example, a 85 year old female who has diabetes and left sided weakness due to a stroke two years ago developed a pressure ulcer on her sacral area while in the hospital due not be turned every 2 hours) my teacher grades very hard so please complete the slides according to the rubric. If you need to add additional slides, please let me know (it’s not problem, even if it will cost me more). I was told by the online chat that the title slide and references slide will be of no charge, so please add them to the presentation (totaling 11 slides) . Please contact me if you have any questions or concerns. Thanks in advance for a root cause analysis power point presentation well done!
