Bed Sores Should NEVER Occur
Unlike many ailments, bed sores are 100 percent preventable. To prevent bed sores from occurring, all it takes is for hospital and nursing home workers to pay attention to their patients and to do their jobs. There is absolutely no excuse for bed sores and Medicare won't even reimburse hospitals for the treatment of bed sores which occur there, because they should never happen.
While a bed sore doesn't sound like the most terrible problem someone could have, these injuries can be horrific for seniors. While recovering from bed sores and neglect wounds, the medical bills can be tremendous.
You can trust our firm to examine the circumstances that led to your loved one's bed sores, including looking into hospital or nursing home staffing, education and training issues.
This should not have happened. To schedule a free initial consultation, contact us today.
