We understand that the decision to place a loved one in the care of a nursing home is not an easy one. You are trusting professionals to offer the services and treatment necessary to improve the quality of life for the elderly or disabled. While most assisted living facilities provide great care and a safe and friendly environment, there are still facilities that are prone to abuse and neglect. The abuse and neglect demonstrated at these awfully run facilities are caused by poorly trained medical staff and lack of attention to the needs of their patients. In most cases, the elderly residents are not able to clearly communicate their wants and needs making it imperative that the staff is intuitive and on high alert at all times ensuring that the best care is received. Unfortunately, due to poor training and lack of communication, among other things, numerous elderly patients are victims of nursing home neglect each day.


Whether you or a loved one has gone through neglect or physical, emotional, or psychological abuse at the hands of a nursing home or long-term care facility, you deserve justice. Are you in need of a nursing home abuse attorney? The attorneys at Sossaman Law are prepared to fight for the compensation and peace of mind that was taken from you.

WARNING SIGNS
COMPENSATION
When you or a loved one enter a nursing home, you expect the utmost quality of care and compassion from the nursing home staff. Unfortunately, this is not the standard of every establishment. A burnt-out, undertrained, or understaffed facility can harbor unsavory workers who cannot care for its members. Or worse, they may take advantage of those living in their care. Abuse within nursing homes and assisted living facilities can easily go unnoticed.
Here are just a few of the warning signs to be aware of:

  • Lack of hurricane evacuation plans and preparation
  • Bruising or wounds
  • Unexplained financial issues
  • Improper care such as malnutrition
  • Emotional withdrawal or isolation

Being able to recognize the signs of abuse and neglect is extremely important for the safety of your elderly loved ones. Signs include unexplained injuries such as bruises and fractures, psychological issues such as depression, loss of appetite, loss or lack of mobility, physical issues from lack of nutrition, unsanitary living conditions, and poor personal hygiene are all potential signs of negligence. If you sense that your loved one may be a victim of nursing home abuse or neglect, it is important that you’re able to take the necessary actions to protect them.
