Do Not Tolerate Nursing Home Abuse
Nursing home abuse and neglect can result in a variety of injuries and potentially fatal medical conditions. Bedsores are anything but a minor skin irritation as they can result in lasting injury, and even death. The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has defined pressure ulcers (bed sores) as "never events" - errors in medical care that are clearly identifiable, preventable, and serious in their consequences for patients, and indicate that a real problem in the safety and credibility of a health care facility. Additionally, dehydration and malnutrition do not just happen without someone acting in a negligent way. Call now and speak with an attorney at (904) 638-8970.
