Our lawyers are experienced in handling nursing home abuse/injury cases. Family members place their trust in nursing home facilities to care for an elderly or infirm relative. These facilities are profit-driven, and oftentimes place their desire for profit above the well-being of the residents they were supposed to caring for.
Lack of proper care can result in various injuries to the resident, including:
- Bed sores / pressure ulcers
- Injury from a fall (fracture, etc.)
- Injury from wandering
- Medication errors or overdoses
- Intentional abuse/neglect by staff
- Untimely death due to lack of care.
Nursing home abuse and negligence is illegal and must be stopped. Our elderly are entitled to live a dignified existence. If your loved one has been mistreated by a nursing home, you should contact Welch, Donlon & Czarples for a free consultation at 607-936-8057 or email inbox@wdcinjurylaw.com.
