Often the most serious victims of nursing home abuse are vulnerable or helpless.They may be unable or fearful and unwilling to complain about it. Family members must be alert and visit often to watch for signs of either abuse or neglect.

Representing nursing home & elder care abuse victims and their families can be a very complex area of legal practice. It demands medical and legal knowledge along with knowledge of the nursing home industry. Experts in the medical field, including doctors and nurses are often required to develop the information and evidence necessary to prove who is legally responsible for the serious injuries and financial damages victims incur.

Nursing Home Abuse

We want are elderly loved ones to receive the best care possible. Oftentimes, we cannot give them the care they need or provide them with round-the-clock medical care. Nursing homes are designed to care for our loved ones and provide them with a comfortable and caring environment. Some nursing homes may neglect our loved ones or have employees that are not properly trained or who do not have the proper qualifications. This can lead to neglect and nursing home abuse.

Nursing home abuse is characterized by the physical or emotional neglect or abuse of a resident of the nursing home. Signs of nursing home abuse include:

Bedsores
Soiled bedding
Malnutrition
Dehydration
Poor hygiene
Bruising
Disinterest
Lack of medical attention

Nursing home abuse can lead to the serious injury or wrongful death of your loved one. Your loved one may be suffering from nursing home neglect, but stays silent out of fear or does not know who to tell.
