    Kendall Assisted Living Center Neglect Attorney

    Nursing homes, assisted living apartments and other elder care facilities have an obligation to provide proper medical treatment and appropriate care for residents.

    In fact, there’s something called the Nursing Home Residents’ Bill of Rights.

    Unfortunately, neglect and abuse in nursing homes happen all-too frequently and can lead to serious injuries and illnesses. When nursing homes fail to protect residents, they should be held accountable to compensate victims of neglect and abuse.

    Common Instances of Abuse and Neglect

    Nursing home neglect and abuse can occur in many ways, including:

    Many of these incidents happen because of understaffing or poorly trained staff members who are not equipped to handle the wide range of resident needs. Other errors happen because nursing homes fail to conduct proper background checks to ensure their workers don’t have violent criminal pasts. None of these reasons is acceptable, and the incidents often lead to serious patient injuries and deaths.
