Toledo Nursing Home Neglect Attorney
Elderly and disabled adults often depend on nursing homes to provide most -- if not all -- daily care, including medicine, food, water, grooming, toileting and physical and social stimulation. There are nursing home laws on the state and federal level that establish uniform standards for nursing homes to provide sufficient care for their elderly residents, and also ensure their safety and protection. However, as a large number of nursing homes are not staffed sufficiently, often with underpaid workers, thousands of dependent and elderly adults are frequently being abused and neglected.
Whether it is an isolated incident that has caused injury or a pattern of abuse or neglect, the victim or the victim’s next of kin has legal rights to bring claims against the nursing home under nursing home neglect laws. If a nursing home is found to be abusive or negligent, then the victim or the victim’s next of kin would normally be awarded financial compensation, and the nursing home might lose its certification for failing to offer the expected care and protection.
If you are the victim’s next of kin or the victim who is suffering from nursing home neglect and abuse, then you might need a professional attorney to help you gain justice. Our nursing home neglect attorneys at Williams DeClark Tuschman can represent elderly or dependant adults who have been injured, or represent families of those who have died due to the injuries resulting from abuse or neglect at the hands of nursing homes, medical providers, in-home caregivers, or any other business or person responsible for the care and protection of the elderly or disabled.
Being well experienced and specialized in this field, Williams DeClark Tuschman can help you build a strong case by investigating the nursing home and their services. Martin Williams, Peter DeClark and Chad Tuschman know very well how to find evidence and witnesses for your case, and will ensure you are being financially compensated for the injuries you have faced due to the abuse and neglect.
