Nursing homes and rehabilitation facilities are responsible for providing quality care to patients and residents. If an injury occurs because of a nursing home's negligence, or even worse, due to direct abuse, the nursing home is responsible for compensating the patient for his or her injury. Compensation includes reimbursement for pain and suffering, medical bills, and the loss of enjoyment of life. There are also state laws that provide additional protections to nursing home patients.
If you suspect that a loved one is being abused or neglected in a nursing home, it is important to gather information regarding the healthcare professionals, nurses, and aides who are caring for that person. It is also helpful to take photographs of any physical signs of abuse including bruises, bed sores, and other injuries to the resident. This evidence will be critical in helping to support the testimony of the resident in proving his case involving nursing home malpractice.
There is no charge for us to review your potential claim. If we take your case, it is on a contingency basis, meaning that you don't pay our fees unless we successfully resolve the claim in your favor. Contact us for a free, confidential case review or call us at 1-877-454-8529.
In any situation where a patient or resident of a nursing home is seriously injured as a result of the nursing home's inadequate care, the patient should seek the advice of an attorney. It is difficult to have a nursing home compensate you fairly for your injuries without the help of an attorney.
