Nursing Home Negligence

Nursing Home Negligence

Vulnerable Residents Betrayed

Health care providers have a duty to follow accepted practice standards and properly train nursing home employees in the high standard of care. But all too often, older patients are subject to physical, financial, emotional or sexual abuse. That is not how it should be. But if this happens to a loved one, you can fight back. Nursing home owners and employees can be held responsible for negligent supervision and care, negligent hiring and maintenance issues that harm their residents.

HOW TO SPOT NURSING HOME NEGLIGENCE/ABUSE

If your loved one exhibits any of these symptoms or behaviors, it is possible they are being neglected or abused:

Bedsores
Dehydration
Urinary tract infections
Weight loss
Bruises
Emotional volatility
Wandering

It is especially important to have the guidance of an experienced personal injury lawyer in a nursing home case, because expert medical testimony is often needed to prove improper treatment. The nursing home may also try to argue that the injury was caused by deteriorating health or medical complications. Our team will work to prove that your loved one was mistreated.
