We rely on nursing home doctors, nurses and staff to behave ethically and provide good care for our loved ones. When a facility or individual staff member fails to practice an acceptable standard of care, however, nursing home residents can suffer severe injuries or become victims of wrongful death.
These problems can be the result of neglect or abuse. Neglect occurs when the facility or staff fails to provide basic services such as adequate supervision, medical care, shelter, food and clothing. Deliberate abuse of patients is a problem in some nursing homes. Abuse can be verbal, mental, physical or sexual. Patient-on-patient abuse can also occur when there is insufficient supervision.
We will carefully investigate nursing home neglect and abuse claims. Whether we find that the facility or a third party is liable, we will work hard to obtain compensation for your losses.
