I'm wondering if anyone uses Proshield plus skin protectant for a loved one that is incontinent and possibly bed bound,it's supposed to be the best cream by far,but I had heard(at least in my area)that it's harder to get prescribed due to it's expense,but if a district nurse has concerns they can ask for it to be prescribed,so I just wondered if anyone else has been using it.
My mum had a bit of a graze on her skin(not a pressure sore) which looked like just the job for Sudocrem and the carers agreed but the carers at my house aren't allowed to use any cream that hasn't got a label on it saying that it's been prescribed,so I rang the doctor yesterday and explained that I needed some Sudocrem and said I would be normallly happy to buy it but need it prescribed to be an official cream so the carers can use it,so he prescribed it,I should have asked about the Proshield but didn't think about it at the time
