Dementia is a syndrome occurring as a result of brain disease, which is usually chronic or progressive in nature and ultimately a life-limiting condition. As discussed in the first article in this twopart series, in addition to cognitive decline, people diagnosed with dementia will also experience a gradual loss of function with a growing inability to perform basic activities of daily living, such as feeding, toileting and dressing (Kilroy-Findley and Harrison Dening, 2025). Dementia is often synonymous with ageing so people will also experience other comorbid conditions related to age, such as the effects of ageing skin and increased risk of frailty. In the advanced stages of dementia, the person may also experience immobility and poor nutrition and hydration, all of which are significant risk factors for developing pressure ulcers. This paper considers pressure ulcers in the context of a fictionalised case study based on clinical practice of a person with dementia, and explores patient assessment and care as well as treatment of pressure ulcers, reflecting on the literature.
