Pressure Ulcer (Bed Sore) Care at Home
Compassionate Pressure Ulcer Care, Delivered at Home
Pressure ulcers — often called bed sores — develop when sustained pressure on the skin reduces blood flow, most commonly in patients with limited mobility who spend long periods in a bed or chair. They can range from early-stage redness to deeper, more serious wounds, and they need careful, consistent attention to keep from worsening. Our licensed clinicians bring that attention directly to the home.
We assess and stage each wound, apply advanced dressings, and provide pressure-relief and repositioning guidance for patients and caregivers. Every plan is coordinated with your physician, so pressure ulcer care fits within the patient's overall health and mobility needs.
Pressure Ulcer (Bed Sore) FAQs
What causes pressure ulcers (bed sores)?
Pressure ulcers develop when sustained pressure on the skin restricts blood flow, often over bony areas in people who spend long periods in a bed or chair. Friction, moisture, and limited mobility can all contribute, which is why relieving pressure and providing consistent care are so important.
Can pressure ulcers be treated at home?
Yes. Our licensed clinicians assess and stage the wound, provide advanced dressings, and offer pressure-relief and repositioning guidance in the home — coordinated with your physician and caregivers.
Does Medicare cover in-home pressure ulcer care?
We accept Medicare and most insurance plans. Coverage depends on your plan and clinical need, and we review it with you before care begins.
