Injuries From Nursing Home Neglect: Bed Sores and Ulcers
The elderly are at a very high risk for injuries such as bed sores or pressure ulcers. These injuries are very serious and often very painful. If left untreated or unnoticed, these injuries can even lead to death. Sores or ulcers can result from:
- Failure to turn a patient or follow the patient's turn schedule
- Failure to regularly bathe a patient
- Failure to change a patient's soiled clothing and bed linens
- Failure to treat an already present wound
- Understaffed nursing home facilities
- Improper documentation/charting
Because the elderly are at high risk for certain injuries, it is very important you speak with an experienced attorney about your legal options. We understand how to gather documentation from the nursing home and evaluate the corporate conduct of the facility. After gathering the necessary information, we will develop a strategy and work to achieve the best results for your situation.
