Jefferson County Nursing Home Negligence Attorneys
Nursing home patients are often in a very vulnerable state. Patients often suffer from dementia, Alzheimer's disease and other serious illnesses or injuries that place them at significant risk of harm if they do not receive quality care.
One common cause of nursing home injuries is a failure by nursing home physicians, nurses and staff to properly monitor patients. There are a variety of ways that nursing home patients may suffer injuries if they are not properly monitored, including:
- Injuries from wandering and elopement
- Slip-and-fall accidents
- Bedsores that could have been prevented or timely treated
- Injuries from dehydration and malnutrition
- Injuries from exposure to adverse weather conditions
- Injuries from a physical or sexual assault that could have been prevented
At the Drake Law Firm, we have advocated on behalf of many clients in nursing home negligence cases, including claims resulting from a failure to properly monitor patients. Our attorneys understand that it is often difficult to know when a loved one has sustained injuries as a result of improper care, and when their injuries are simply the result of age or illness.
We have the experience and resources to properly investigate and actively pursue nursing home negligence claims. We know where to look for evidence that may prove critical to the success of such claims. We know what questions to ask, and we have experience taking on the insurance companies to pursue the full and fair compensation our clients are entitled to receive.
