Admission Assessment Documentation

Confirm the skin assessment was completed on admission per facility policy and documented in the chart.
Check that the record documents intact skin, existing wounds, redness, bruising, tears, moisture-associated damage, and other abnormalities.
Verify the note identifies who completed the assessment and where it was performed.
Check whether prior pressure injuries, mobility limitations, incontinence, nutrition concerns, or other risk factors are documented.
Verify that any abnormal findings triggered appropriate follow-up, escalation, or care plan updates.

Braden Score Assessment

Verify a Braden score is recorded in the admission assessment.
Confirm the six Braden subscales are documented or otherwise available for review.
Verify the documented risk category matches the numeric score and facility thresholds.
Check whether pressure injury prevention measures were started when indicated by the risk score.

Head-to-Toe Skin Inspection

Confirm the assessment covers the full body surface, not only high-risk areas.
Verify findings are recorded by anatomical location with clear descriptors.
Check that any open areas or suspected pressure injuries are described with enough detail for clinical follow-up.
Verify high-risk areas such as sacrum, heels, elbows, hips, and occiput were specifically checked.
Confirm moisture-associated skin damage or related concerns are identified when present.

Device-Related Skin Check

Verify devices such as oxygen tubing, splints, catheters, braces, or monitoring equipment are listed if present.
Check that the chart documents inspection of device contact points and adjacent skin.
Verify any device-related skin injury is clearly documented and differentiated from other wounds.
Confirm protective interventions were documented when device pressure risk was identified.

Photo Documentation and Follow-Up

Confirm photos were taken when required by policy or when clinically indicated for wounds or skin breakdown.
Check that photo capture followed consent and facility policy requirements.
Confirm abnormal findings were escalated to the appropriate clinician and follow-up actions were initiated.
