Pressure Sores

It is traumatic enough to see a loved one in hospital particularly if they are frail and elderly. It is even more upsetting to then discover that because they have not received appropriate treatment, they have developed pressure sores.

This is an all too common occurrence and with appropriate nursing care, can be easily avoided. Pressure sores occur because of the failure to turn patients on a regular basis to relieve pressure on areas such as the heels or sacrum. If left untreated these injuries can be extremely serious and can lead to the need for plastic surgery.
