Many nursing home employees are under-trained and many nursing homes are understaffed. Yet, they are in charge of caring for the elderly and sick. One way to address this problem is to hold nursing homes accountable for abuse and neglect.
Here are some of the different kinds of nursing home abuse or negligence:
- Malnutrition and/or dehydration
- Inadequate medical care and the administering of the wrong medication
- Over-sedation
- Bed and pressure sores
- Physical injury from falls
- Sexual, physical or mental abuse
- Lack of supervision
- Theft
- Coercion
- Fraudulent over-billing
Whether you are a family member calling from out of state or you have experienced nursing home abuse, Mr. Allison will provide you with caring, capable and compassionate legal representation.
We encourage you to contact our office soon after the abuse occurs. Mr. Allison will take all the time that you and he need to get a full picture of what happened. We will then begin a thorough, organized and efficient preparation of the abuse claim.
You may be certain that we will stop at nothing to help bring the truth to light and address the wrongs.
A recent federal study reports that 91 percent of nursing homes nationwide have insufficient nursing staff. Forty percent of all nursing homes would need to increase nursing staff by upwards of 50 percent to meet the minimum legal requirements.
