Stakeholder Perspectives on mHealth Technologies to Prevent Sitting-Acquired Pressure Injuries in Long-Term Care Facilities: Mixed Methods Study

These findings highlight the complexity of addressing the repositioning needs of seated LTC residents with AD or ADRD using mHealth technologies due to changes as the disease progresses. mHealth technologies should encourage more independence by residents experiencing milder memory loss, with increasing automaticity in repositioning residents in later stages. Both approaches could potentially minimize care provider burden in repositioning seated residents throughout the day. Design, development, and implementation of technologies should carefully weigh benefit versus burden to care providers and residents and continue to engage with them for feedback as development progresses.
