Nursing Home Abuse Lawyer
When you trust your loved one to other peoples’ care, you expect them to treat your loved one as they would like to be treated themselves. You expect them to be attentive and caring—as you should.
Inspectors received 37,150 complaints about conditions in nursing homes in 2007.
– The New York Times
Unfortunately, the National Center on Elder Abuse estimates that between 1 and 2 million Americans age 65 and older have been injured, exploited, or mistreated by someone whom they depended on for care and protection. The nursing home abuse attorneys at Ferrer, Poirot & Wansbrough find this number appalling and unacceptable. If your loved one has been the victim of abuse or neglect, we want to help.
Inadequate Care
If you suspect your loved one is being mistreated or neglected, there are several signs to look for that could confirm your fears. Signs of careless health care can include:
- lack of proper heating or cooling in the nursing home
- caregiver's inability to explain the resident’s condition
- caregiver allowing the resident to wander off the premises
- sudden change in the resident’s medication or meal times
- lack of supervision and interaction with the resident
- caregiver's refusal to allow visitors to see the resident alone
You have the right to question the care your loved ones are given, and the nursing home abuse lawyers at Ferrer, Poirot & Wansbrough will help you enforce that right. We may not have been able to protect them against the nursing home neglect, but we will protect their rights.
