Michigan Nursing Home Negligence Lawyer
Elder Abuse in MichiganThe elderly are some of the most vulnerable members of our society. The staff of nursing homes are entrusted with the responsibility of taking care of their many medical, physical, and emotional needs. However, all too often elderly residents of nursing homes are neglected or abused and they suffer needlessly as a result. The elderly are not always able to observe and report problems with their care or even their own symptoms. If you suspect a loved one has been injured due to nursing home negligence, a Michigan medical malpractice attorney at our firm can investigate the situation and determine if legal action should be taken.
Some types of nursing home negligence include:
- Unsanitary conditions leading to infections
- Nutritional neglect resulting in sudden weight loss and malnutrition
- Neglect of medical symptoms
- Failure to recognize and properly treat bed sores
- Failure to properly administer medications
- Falls resulting in fractured hips or legs
- Sexual abuse
