Pressure Injuries
(AKA "Bed Sores," "Decubitus Ulcers," or "Pressure Ulcers")
WE WILL HELP YOU
If you or a loved one has been neglected by a healthcare provider and received a pressure injury as a result, you must call or e-mail us immediately. It is important to make sure everything is properly reported to government agencies. We will demand financial compensation for the harm done to you by the healthcare facility. In the unlikely scenario where we are unable to obtain compensation for you or your loved one, then our services will be free.

What are pressure injuries?
Pressure injuries develop when a person is left lying in bed for a long period of time, which causes a reduction in blood supply to the skin. Over time, the skin breaks down and will form an open sore. Pressure injuries can be difficult to treat and slow to heal, and they often lead to more serious problems such as skin infection, bone infection, and death. Pressure injuries are completely avoidable and should never occur.

Locations of Pressure Injuries
Pressure injuries typically form over the bony areas of the body including the back of the head, shoulders, elbows, lower back, buttocks, legs, and heels.

Are Pressure Injuries Preventable?
Yes. Medicare considers pressure injuries, bed sores, pressure sores, and decubitus ulcers to be “Never Events” because they are entirely avoidable so long as proper care and preventative measures are instituted and implemented by the health care provider.
