Nursing homes serve as residences for people who are too frail or too sick to live at home or as a facility during a recovery period. Nursing homes provide skilled nursing care and rehabilitation services to people with illnesses, injuries, or functional disabilities. However, nursing home residents are vulnerable to emotional, physical, sexual and financial abuse. Patients suffering from dementia or other disabilities are especially vulnerable to abuse by nursing home employees. Abuse could range from physical injuries, neglect, intimidation, theft, and duress. If you or someone you know has suffered from nursing home abuse, our attorneys can help you pursue civil or administrative relief your family deserves. |
