Elderly Abuse

Every day, elderly and mentally impaired residents of nursing homes suffer from abuse at nursing facilities, retirement homes, and convalescent facilities. Nursing homes constantly fail to undertake the duty of care for the elderly person and to use reasonable care to provide the elder's medical and mental health care. The families and friends of the victims suffer, as well when they're loved ones are injured and abused in poorly run nursing home and other assisted living facilities across the country.

Incidents of elder abuse have been rising steadily during the past few decades. We are dedicated to providing victims and their families with the information and resources they need to help protect against abuse, neglect, and mistreatment suffered at the hands of nursing homes and their staff. Our firm believes that it is reasonable to expect that our loved ones will be properly treated and cared for.

Elder abuse is a broad legal term encompassing a number of different kinds of abuse from nursing home neglect or abandonment to physical abuse or psychological abuse on the pat of the retirement facility's employees, and may also include elder financial abuse. We represent people who have been injured by nursing homes and other long-term care facilities in cases involving: Bed Sores, Medication errors, Falls, Abuse, Infections, Malnutrition, and Dehydration.

Family and friends should be alert to bedsores or rashes, weight loss and other symptoms of malnourishment and dehydration. Inquiries should be made regarding smell, or other evidence of urine or feces, adequate clothing and whether the elder is being offered proper medical treatment.
