Home caregiving is a vital yet demanding role that many individuals undertake to support their loved ones. While caregiving can be rewarding, it also presents numerous challenges that can impact the caregiver's physical, emotional, and financial well-being. Understanding these challenges and exploring potential solutions can help caregivers manage their responsibilities more effectively.
Bedsores, also known as pressure ulcers, and pressure injuries, are injuries that result from prolonged pressure on the skin, causing damage to the skin and underlying tissue.

Navigating the world of home care for someone with long-term immobility can be overwhelming for new caregivers. Understanding the specific needs of your loved one will help you find the most helpful resources—whether that's practical guides, supportive communities, or government-backed programs.
Bedsores, also called pressure ulcers or pressure injuries , are a serious concern for individuals who are confined to a bed or wheelchair for extended periods. They occur when sustained pressure on an area of skin cuts off blood circulation, leading to tissue damage and the formation of open wounds. This is especially significant for those who cannot reposition themselves regularly.

Thankfully, the COVID-19 pandemic now appears to be abating somewhat as governments and medical researchers work their way towards a vaccine to negate the effects of the virus.
While more must be done to return daily life to as near normal as possible, now is an excellent time to review the situation that has occurred and plan for the future.
