Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect Claim

Elderly individuals are particularly vulnerable as they require a high level of care and attention to keep them safe.  Sadly, when we entrust the care of a loved one to a nursing home, the residence may cause or fail to prevent an injury through abuse or neglect.    

Nursing home abuse and neglect can include:

  • Allowing or causing a slip or trip and fall
  • Failure to develop a fall prevention plan
  • Failure to prevent malnutrition
  • Failure to prevent dehydration
  • Failure to prevent bedsores
  • Failure to prevent wandering
  • Improper supervision and failure to monitor residents
  • Improper use of restraints
  • Medication and prescription errors
  • Failure to refer residents for medical treatment
  • Physical assault
  • Sexual assault

If a member of your family has experienced any of the examples of abuse mentioned above, you need the advice of a nursing home abuse lawyer.
