Educational games and prizes for attendees will teach about skin care, wound prevention and healing in a fun and engaging manner. There will be vendors on hand to discuss their products for skin care and wound healing and most of them are bringing samples of their products for us to try.

St. Luke's Therapy Department will have an educational booth with products we use for pressure redistribution and the modalities we have available for wound healing. The Nutrition Department will also be doing a booth highlighting the importance of proper nutrition for wound healing.

All St. Luke Family of Caring staff are encouraged to attend this fun and informative event. Learn about preventing pressure ulcers, why skin creams and barriers are important to our skin, and what happens to our skin as we age.

Thanks and we look forward to seeing everyone!
