So sorry to hear about your mother.
My mother in law was in the same position about 5 years ago and she developed bed sores and infections.
My sister in law had to be at the hospital and then in the care home all the time to make sure that she was being looked after. She massaged her feet and hands to soothe her and turned her over when she could to prevent sores. She rubbed talc under her and made sure all was kept clean. But there were many people that did not have relatives or visitors and it was clear for all to see..the care was sub standard.
You must be vigilant and make sure the nursing staff know you are watching.
I hope your mother has the care she needs.
