Nursing Home Abuse
Tucson Lawyers: Advocating Against Nursing Home Abuse
The elderly are uniquely vulnerable, and all too often they are the victims of nursing home abuse or neglect at the hands of an organization hired to provide care. When a loved one has become a victim of nursing home neglect, a zealous advocate is what you need. At the Tucson Law Office of Carter Morey we are zealous advocates for our clients. We focus on holding negligent and abusive caregivers accountable for the harm they cause.
Seniors Citizens may find themselves in nursing home facilities where care personnel are inadequately screened or trained. In these situations, nursing home abuse takes many forms. It can be physical, mental or financial. The elderly may not receive timely or proper medical care and as a result may suffer from bed sores, pressure ulcers or over-medication. Without proper attention, an elderly person might try to get out of bed on his or her own, fall, and fracture a hip.
At the Law Office of Carter Morey, we handle a wide range of claims related to elder abuse:
- Bed sores
- Overmedication
- Falls and fractures
- Dehydration
- Malnutrition
- Mental abuse
- Assault and physical abuse
- Theft
- Wrongful death
- Lack of personnel
Often abuse or neglect is not recognized until the nursing home has caused serious harm. Family members of elderly persons staying in care facilities should be vigilant in watching for the signs that their loved one has been abused or received inadequate treatment. Talk with an experienced lawyer if you believe nursing home neglect has occurred.
