When we send our parents, grandparents or other loved ones to a nursing care facility, we have a right to expect that they will be treated with kindness and care. Unfortunately, nursing home negligence and abuse is far more frequent than we would like to believe.
The results of nursing home neglect and abuse are serious and include:
- Bed sores
- Malnutrition
- Slip-and-fall accidents
- Broken bones
- Spinal injuries
- Head and brain injuries
- Death
At Tidwell Strimban, we aggressively pursue compensation on behalf of people injured by nursing home neglect and abuse. If your parent, sibling or grandparent has been injured as a result of nursing home abuse and neglect, contact our experienced personal injury attorneys to learn more about your legal remedies.
Why Do Injuries Occur
Bed sores and slip-and-fall injuries are two of the most common types of nursing home injuries. These and other common injuries are typically the result of caretaker neglect. In some cases, the nursing home simply fails to employ enough workers to adequately monitor and care for their patients. In other cases, the nursing home fails to adequately screen and monitor their employees to ensure quality patient care.
Serious Injuries and Wrongful Death
Although we handle all viable claims, we have extensive experience in cases involving serious and fatal injuries. No case is too complex for our team of experienced personal injury attorneys. Collectively, we have more than 30 years of legal experience.
