Personal InjuryLOS ANGELES NURSING HOME ABUSE LAWYER
A recent government report exposed that nearly one-third of the nursing homes in the U.S. have been cited for abuse. If you put your loved ones in a nursing home, there is a 33% chance that they could be in a place in which people are being badly treated.
California enacted The Adult Civil Protection Act, which gives extra safety to senior citizens living in nursing homes. In addition, BISNAR | CHASE has assumed a higher duty for representing mistreated elders in cases involving nursing homes and other types of assisted living facilities. We thrive on bringing justice to those who have done others wrong, and it is especially rewarding to perform this work for older adults who have been put in a terrible position through no fault of their own.
There are two general categories of nursing home abuse: intentional harm and neglect. Intentional harm includes things like physical attacks, emotional abuse and financial abuse. Neglect includes things like malnutrition, medication overdose, infections and any number of other problems that can result from failure to provide sufficient care.
A nursing home / assisted living facility must do these three things:
- Provide quality care for the residents in an environment that will promote enhancement of their quality of life.
- Produce a written plan for each resident that describes the medical, nursing and psycho-social needs of the resident.
- Conduct a complete assessment describing his/her capacity to perform daily functions as well as any significant impairment the resident may have.
It is the mission of BISNAR | CHASE and their Los Angeles Nursing Home Abuse Lawyers to assist victims of nursing home abuse and their families to recover the best financial compensation possible for the harm endured by the victims. There is no fee for consultations or case evaluations, and there is never a fee unless we are successful in recovering money for you. You can rely on our experience to hold wrongdoers responsible for their actions. Give us a call today - 1-800-666-4701
