About Pressure Sores Advice
Pressure Sores Advice was created to help families find clear, reliable information about pressure sore risks, symptoms, and care routines.
Many people first notice changes in skin condition at home or while visiting loved ones in hospital or care settings. Having the right knowledge early can make a meaningful difference.
Our aim is not to replace medical guidance but to offer families practical, easy-to-understand advice. We cover early indicators, daily checks, comfort routines, safer positioning, and what to ask if you are unsure about the care being provided.
We also share insights to help families recognise when to raise concerns and when to seek further support. Keeping people informed leads to better outcomes and safer care.
About The Author
Rebecca Hart has worked in the care-information field for several years, focusing on pressure sore awareness, prevention basics, and guidance for families who want to understand how safe care should look day to day.
Her goal is to make complex health topics easier to understand. She explains early warning signs, care-planning expectations, safe turning routines, and the importance of clear communication with professionals.
Rebecca is not a medical professional and does not give clinical advice. Instead, she provides general information to help families feel more confident and better informed when supporting a relative in a hospital, care home, or home setting.
She also contributes to wider resource collections on research, training materials, and national organisations that support people affected by pressure sores.
You can use the pressure sores advice on this website alongside support from your care team to stay informed, recognise signs early and feel more prepared when discussing daily routines or comfort needs.
