Bedridden Patients
Bedridden patients are individuals who are unable to leave their beds due to illness, injury, or disability. This condition can result from various medical issues, including stroke, severe injuries, or chronic illnesses like multiple sclerosis. Being bedridden can lead to complications such as pressure sores, muscle atrophy, and respiratory issues.
Care for bedridden patients often involves assistance with daily activities, including personal hygiene, nutrition, and mobility. Family members or healthcare professionals may provide support to ensure their comfort and well-being. Regular repositioning and physical therapy can help prevent complications and improve quality of life.
