Nursing Home Selection - Nursing Home Neglect and Abuse

Our firm provides the following information to you in selecting the appropriate nursing home facility. We realize the decision of whether to place a parent or loved one in a nursing home is extremely difficult. Often the decision is the last viable alternative. No one wants their loved one to be neglected or abused. Therefore, we are providing you with some information that may help guide you in selecting a nursing care facility.

• Choosing a Nursing Home

• Nursing Home Checklist

Once a nursing home is selected, we have provided you with some things to look for to make sure your loved one is not being neglected or abused.

• Spotting Signs of Nursing Home Neglect

If your loved one is unfortunate enough to be a victim of nursing home negligence or abuse, we handle claims that include falls, fractures and broken bones, dehydration, malnutrition, decubitus ulcers (pressure sores or bed sores), physical abuse, mental abuse, sexual abuse (by staff and other patients), improper restraints, elopement, medication errors, and all other failures of care.
