CAC and POC Testimonials“As a CAC member I have the ability to communicate with thought leaders in the area of pressure ulcers/wounds. I work as a partner with other companies and providers to further the cause of the treatment and prevention of pressure ulcers.” Kathy Whittington, Director of Wound Care Programs, KCI, Inc. “American Medical Technologies joined the NPUAP as a POC in 2007. As a provider of wound management services for long term care, we felt collaborating with the NPUAP would be an honor and privilege. We look to the NPUAP for guidance and expertise, and incorporate the NPUAPs work into all we do. We wanted to give back to the NPUAP by sharing our knowledge and expertise within the long term care setting. We have thoroughly enjoyed working with the Panel on numerous task forces, committees and meetings. Being a POC has enabled our company to align itself with the NPUAP gaining exposure, networking and sharing information to better the prevention, assessment, treatment and documentation of pressure ulcers. We encourage other organizations and providers of care to join the NPUAP as a Provider Organization Council to share your expertise with the Panel and to be a part of a well respected think tank dealing with all issues surrounding pressure ulcers. Let your voice and concerns be heard!” Heather Hettrick, Director of Clinical Research, American Medical Technologies "Genesis HealthCareSM is proud to be a provider member of the NPUAP. Genesis provides quality care to over 26,000 patients and residents every day in ShortStay and Long Term Care units, and Assisted Living Communities. Genesis HealthCare is committed to excellence in Skin Integrity. Participating with the NPUAP has offered our organization the opportunity to collaborate with the leaders in pressure ulcer education, public policy and research. NPUAP provider members have a voice in advancing guidelines as pressure ulcer prevention and care continues to advance. One of the primary benefits of participating with the NPUAP is that it allows its members to be on the frontline in the battle to reduce pressure ulcers and improve patient outcomes."
