A client emailed me this disturbing You Tube video on pressure sores. The video is graphic, but demonstrates the horrific pressure sores that may develop without proper nursing care. The video has photos of:

Pressure sores on hips
Pressure sores on buttocks
Pressure sores on feet
Pressure sores on heels
Pressure sores on elbows
Pressure sores on head
Pressure sores on back
Pressure sores on neck

As the narrator says, if you have a pressure sore, it is likely the result of neglect. If this pressure sore developed in a nursing home, long-term care facility or hospital, you likely have a case against them for improper care and are entitled to damages for the resulting medical treatment and pain and suffering amongst other legal rights.
