Is there any country that has a national target for pressure injury?

01 August 2023 0 5K Report

I wonder there is any country where a national target for pressure injury in a healthcare facility (e.g. O.O% for the proportion of patients with any newly occurred pressure injury among patients admitted to the facility).

In South Korea, the Health Insurance Review and Assessment (HIRA) has assessed the quality of care at long-term care hospital, and periodically provided some outcome measures related to inpatient pressure injury.

I have googled for two hours, but I was not able to find any national target yet. Is there anybody on the ResearchGate who knows about that?
