Worldwide Pressure Injury Prevention Day (WWPIPD) takes place on the third Thursday of November each year, and is dedicated to raising awareness and promoting education around the prevention of pressure injuries. This global initiative encourages healthcare professionals, organizations, and the public to take action toward better prevention practices and improved patient outcomes.

To support your efforts, NPIAP offers a comprehensive media toolkit suitable for use in all healthcare settings. These ready-to-use materials can help amplify your advocacy and educational initiatives.

For more information about our global partners and their involvement in WWPIPD, visit the websites of the Pan Pacific Pressure Injury Alliance (PPPIA) and the European Pressure Ulcer Advisory Panel (EPUAP).
