Nursing Home Abuse Attorney Serving Tampa Bay
Some different types of nursing home abuse or neglect include:
When you move your loved one to a nursing home, you want to believe that he or she will receive the care he or she needs to feel comfortable in their new retirement community or long-term care center. Lancaster Law Firm believes you shouldn’t have to ask, “Will he or she be treated with the love and respect he or she deserves?”
Brochures for nursing homes tend to feature cozy apartments with older people smiling during arts and crafts. Or sometimes you may see fun community events and friendly dining facilities. What these brochures fail to show is that nursing home abuse happens no matter what the environment looks like. Neglect and other abuse is a real problem affecting nursing home residents and their loved ones
It is essential to ensure that nursing home residents and their loved ones understand his or her rights and the responsibility of nursing homes to protect their residents. Abuse of any rights, or failure to meet state-mandated obligations—results in legal recourse.
