V any pressure area needs to changing position every 2 hours
at the time it is good to rub cream into the surrounding area, and have as many positions as you can manage that put no pressure on that area at all. Not easy for a PALS I know, but being aware of that helps you think positions through. Pillows to help maintain positions from rolling back onto the area can really help, but be careful not to allow a pillow to create pressure.
I'm so very glad your family visit was beautiful.
Huge kudos to that contractor friend!
