New York Nursing Home Negligence Lawyer: Protect Your Loved Ones

Placing a family member in a nursing home is a big decision, but it can be the best place for them to receive the attention and care they require.

Sadly, nursing homes often neglect their responsibility to protect our family from harm and instead of top-quality care and comfort, our loved ones suffer. This can lead to guilt, pain, and misfortune for everyone involved.

Is Your Loved One Suffering from Nursing Home Negligence?

There are a variety of factors that can result in negligence, including:

  • Inadequate hygiene in the facilities
  • Understaffed facilities
  • Poor maintenance of medical equipment
  • Under-qualified staff
  • Insufficient employee background checks
  • Physical abuse – staff members inflict physical pain on residents when frustrated or through inappropriate discipline actions.
  • Bedsores – residents who have to lie or sit in one position for long periods develop bedsores and painful ulcers.
  • Nursing home falls – this is one of the top injuries incurred in nursing homes. Falls could be the result of poor maintenance, obstacles, slippery falls, or failure to correctly restrain residents.
  • Wandering off – negligence can lead to residents wandering off the nursing home’s premises which lead to an array of dangers.
  • Dehydration or malnutrition – many residents require help with their nutrition and hydration, but can suffer due to the inattentiveness of staff.
  • Restraint injuries – staff may use physical restraints incorrectly leading to serious injuries. Typical restraints include ankle and wrist restraints and chemicals such as sedatives.
