Offering drinks blended with ice or ice cream can help soothe the mouth and provide much-needed nutrition. Oral care provided appropriately will help soothe and heal the mouth sores. The nurse will be responsible for determining the need for additional pain medication if appropriate. Skin care, although appropriate, will have little impact on the oral sores.
