It is your sole responsibility to select the appropriate care for yourself or your loved one. We work with both you and the Participating Communities in your search. We do not permit our Advisors to have an ownership interest in Participating Communities.
II. How We Are Paid. We do not charge you any fee – we are paid by the Participating Communities. Some Participating Communities pay us a percentage of the first month's standard rate for the rent and care services you select. We invoice these fees after the senior moves in.

Your loved one may not require home care or assisted living services at this time. However, continue to monitor their condition for changes and consider occasional in-home care services for help as needed.
Remember, this assessment is not a substitute for professional advice.
Share a few details and we will match you to trusted home care in your area:
It would be best to bring it to their attention. Then ideally it would be in their care plan for resident and treated regulary until healed or ongoing if necessary. As staff has most frequent access to the resident I think this would be the ideal plan hopefully.
Has this damaged skin been examined by somebody properly qualified to do it? And whose skin is it? - what medical conditions are relevant? - any known allergies?
With all these supplementary questions, perhaps it now seems less silly to answer your question with "yes, they do."
I assigned my LO to the “House Physician” when she entered her residence, and intended, if necessary, to change her care to an outside physician if I felt I could do better when I had time to assess how things were working.
The house physician has turned out to be a wonderful doctor, and I’m very satisfied with her care.
Since you’ve chosen to share very little about the person for whom you care, I’d suggest to you to ask very specific questions about your LO, who oversees the LO’S care, and what rules they may or may not be concerning personal items, especially if there are any cases of Covid in the facility.
I took note that this is your 3rd post since Jan 2020 and that you have a case manager. Are you living in a private Assisted Living or a group type home ran by the State? Because if this is State run, there are people you can complain too if you feel ur being neglected. They are called Ombudsmen and their phone number can be found under State Agencies. You also have your County Adult Protection agency.
Are you talking about skin tears. Never heard of sheared skin. Skin tears they usually use Terri strips. They pull the skin together. They may need to order them. The only reason I have any is because my daughter (woundcare RN) gave them to me for Mom.
When Mom was in AL they did need an order for meds and even over the counter stuff. So maybe they need an order for a special bandage you may need. Like said, it may be considered a woundcare thing and that is a specialty. An aide should not be doing woundcare.

Skin tears need special bandages to avoid tearing again when the bandage is removed. You don't want a standard Bandaid put on one.
Sheared skin? Sheared skin where?
