How do I prevent bedsores if the elderly person is bedridden?
Pranali Tulsulkar
Reposition them every 2–3 hours to reduce pressure on one area of the body. Use soft bedding and pillows for support. Keep the skin clean and dry, and check daily for redness or sores. Gentle massage (avoiding red areas) can also help improve circulation.
