Dear Patient , you can search online for doctors who do home visits for terminal care patients . To prevent bed sores , you can also try using a water bed and can also keep moving her slightly from one side to another . In case a sore appears raw try applying an antibiotic cream like fusidic acid cream ! I hope this helps !
