Nursing Home Abuse Facts
THEY DESERVE OUR PROTECTION
Our affiliated nursing home neglect and abuse attorneys aggressively seek to protect the rights of elderly people and explain to families the causes of their abuse. We and our affiliated counsel have successfully recovered millions of dollars for our clients. We have the skill, experience, and success to effectively represent our client's interests and provide them personal attention.
We understand that everyone in a nursing home was once a vibrant young child and an active adult. We believe that every one residing in a nursing home or long term care facility deserves to be treated with dignity. While nursing homes that receive Medicaid and Medicare are required to undergo inspections, there are still deficiencies in the process and nursing home abuse still occurs.
With people living longer and the aging population on the rise, more and more people are spending the last years living in nursing homes. Unfortunately, due to understaffing and lack of training many elderly people are suffering from nursing home abuse and neglect.
Common Issues in Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect
We are committed to ensuring that nursing homes foster a standard level of care for elderly people under their supervision. Some of the common signals that nursing home abuse may be occurring include:
- - Pressure Sores, Bed Sores, and Decubitus Ulcers

- - Inappropriate Use of Physical Restraints
- - Physical, Emotional, and Psychological Abuse
