Nebraska Abuse And Neglect Lawyers
It is not uncommon for most problems to be traced back to the nursing home staff. Whether the facility is operating with fewer staff members because of budget cuts, or the staff that is in place has not been properly trained, the facility residents are the ones who suffer. If you have noticed injuries or health issues during visits, contact a skilled attorney at once.
We are prepared to handle cases involving a wide range of factors, including:
- Medication errors
- Falls
- Dehydration/malnutrition
- Bedsores
- Abuse, including physical, verbal, financial or sexual abuse
- Improper use of restraints
- Injuries during transport
- Wandering/elopement
Unfortunately, many of these nursing home residents cannot speak up for themselves. Count on us to aggressively fight to hold the nursing home staff and administration accountable for their negligence or inattention. If the circumstances surrounding a loved one's death could have been avoided, we can discuss the option of filing a wrongful death claim.
