SCALE STATEMENT 1
Physiological changes that occur as a result of the
dying process (days to weeks) may affect the skin
and soft tissues and may manifest as observable
(objective) changes in skin color, turgor, or
integrity, or as subjective symptoms such as
localized pain. These changes can be unavoidable
and may occur with the application of appropriate
interventions that meet or exceed the standard of
care.

The skin is essentially a window into
the health of the body, and if read
correctly, can provide a great deal
of insight into what is happening
inside the body.

A comprehensive, individualized
plan of care should not only
address the patient’s skin changes
and co-morbidities, but any patient
concerns that impact quality of life
including psychological and
emotional issues.

The patient’s circle of care includes
the members of the patient unit
including family, significant others,
caregivers, and other healthcare
professionals that may be external
to the current interprofessional
team.

For pressure ulcers, it is important to
determine if the ulcer may be (i)
healable within an individual’s life
expectancy, (ii) maintained, or (iii)
non-healable or palliative.
