Tucson, Arizona, Attorneys Representing People Suffering From Bed Sores
Whether due to paralysis, disease or injury, many residents of nursing homes are unable to move freely. People who are confined to their beds must be moved regularly in order to relieve pressure on certain areas of the body. If nursing home staff fail in their duties to regularly move patients, bed sores, also known by the terms decubitus ulcers or pressure sores, can result.

Certain parts of the body, such as the hips or buttocks, are more susceptible to pressure sores. Minor bed sores can be treated simply by relieving the pressure. If left untreated, bed sores can lead to severe infections, loss of skin and muscle, and even death. If a loved one living in a nursing home is suffering from bed sores, it is very likely they are the victim of nursing home negligence.
