Description

In this episode we are joined by Victoria Holland - experienced Paralegal at Ison Harrison Solicitors - to gain some insight into what pressure sores/ulcers are and how they develop. Unfortunately, through substandard care in hospitals and care homes, people can develop pressure sores (particularly those with poor mobility) which can be extremely painful and can lead to further health problems through infection. Some areas covered in this episode include what preventative measures should be taken? What are patient risk factors in developing a pressure sore, and what are the different types of pressure sores?
