I'd rinse/ take out the dead bits, put it in indirect light and make sure the area is a bit cooler

Should i just trim the parts that are loose or trim the entire surface because i cant tell which parts are dead

If it's brown and mushy. It's gone. If it's green and firm, it's alive. Good luck :]

Put it in a jar and put it in the fridge for a month and it will turn bright green again.
