Bed Sores / Pressure Ulcers FAQs

Bed sores, also called decubitus ulcers or pressure ulcers, can be a confusing topic.  Nursing home staff often try to present them as the inevitable result of aging and poor health.  This of course shifts the blame for the development of bed sores away from the nursing home.  We are pleased to provide information on this topic to families of nursing home residents and their families.
