Patients are at the Heart of our Skin Care

Optimal skin care can help reduce the risk of pressure injuries, infections and other healthcare-associated conditions. That’s why our clinicians have worked hand in hand with yours for the past 25 years to continually evolve our skin care products. Some of our highlights over the years have included:

• More intuitive packaging with bold color coding and lear wording that describes the product’s function for simple product selection
• Optimized product categories that ensure high-quality formulation for all skin and hair types
• Updated training and education that help healthcare teams stay up-to-date on best practice guidance from industry leaders including the National Pressure Injury Advisory Panel and the Coalition for At Risk Skin

We also know that the quality of the ingredients matters more than the quantity, which means scientists develop our product formulas based on efficacy, patient satisfaction and outcomes. As the complexity of healthcare continues to grow and nursing staff is stretched thin, the color-coded packaging helps make it easier to choose the right product at the right time for the right patient.

With high nursing staff turnover rates, education is crucial to ensure consistency of care. Ongoing educational support for our skin care products, through in-services, workshops and more, helps staff follow best practices. It also increases caregiver confidence, which improves staff retention.

It’s been 25 years of skin care here at Medline, and we continue to collaborate with you to make sure preventative skin care is top of mind.
