Skin fair is Monday

COEUR d'ALENE - Kootenai Health is hosting a skin fair from 8 a.m. to noon Monday.

Guest speaker Terry McManus retired from the U.S. Air Force after an ATV accident in 2008 that left him in a wheelchair. Now a nurse practitioner and nursing Ph.D. student at Washington State University, McManus is focusing his dissertation on pressure ulcers and speaks at various hospitals.

McManus will discuss pressure ulcer detection and prevention. He plans to describe the risk factors, identify at-risk populations, assess nursing interventions and skin assessment, and review clinical practice guidelines as well as treatment options.

The skin fair is free and open to the public. Register online at www.kootenaihealth.org/education or call 666-2030.
