What’s happening at Kadlec
Welcome, new physicians

raised more than $300,000. Special
thanks to Jaxon, Amy Raye and A. J.,

Evidenced-based Award
Kadlec’s SPOT Ulcer Prevention Protocol program
received the Evidenced-based Award.
In an effort to prevent and reduce pressure ulcers
(bed sores), a Nursing Skin Care Team was developed.
This team educated nurses on documenting skin
assessments, prevention interventions,
proper pressure reduction intervention and
correct use of appropriate products.
Planetree honors
