When our loved ones get older and require more care, trusting the staff at a nursing home facility can be difficult. If your loved one cannot speak for himself or herself to tell you if something is not right, it becomes even more frightful. But in many situations, there is no other choice. You hope that they will be cared for as promised.
That's why it's devastating to learn about nursing home abuse or neglect. This could include:
- Falls
- Bedsores
- Malnutrition
- Dehydration
- Improper medication
Can You Sue For Nursing Home Neglect?
To hold those accountable for harming someone as fragile as the aged, you may be able to file a personal injury claim against the facility. This is not only about seeking justice for the one who was harmed, but it can also provide a warning and possibly prevent others from going through the same pain. In addition, a troublesome lawsuit may force a facility to change its ways and follow Pennsylvania's laws.
