Sargent Law Firm’s Recent Personal Injury Claim Results

When Sargent Law Firm represents you, our goal is to secure maximum compensation for your damages. Here are some of our recent results for personal injury claims in California and Idaho.

Every case is unique, and this partial list of our recent results does not guarantee your case will have the same or a similar outcome. Reach out to our personal injury lawyers today so we can evaluate your case based on its own merits.

California nursing homes, long-term care service providers, assisted living facilities, and in-house caregiver companies are supposed to provide quality healthcare assistance to California’s elderly population. Sadly, instances of nursing home abuse and neglect are increasing as baby boomers continue to need extra care and support.

If your loved one has been a victim of California nursing home abuse or nursing home neglect, contact a Chula Vista nursing home abuse lawyer to discuss your situation. Let an experienced and compassionate injury attorney assist you in helping you take your loved one out of harm’s way or evaluate what legal options are available to you if they have been injured or died.

Common Forms of Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect

There are many different types of California nursing home injuries, but most can be categorized into either nursing home abuse or nursing home neglect.

When faced with such distressing situations, seeking the support and guidance of Chula Vista’s trusted personal injury attorney can be crucial. They can help protect the rights of vulnerable individuals, hold the responsible parties accountable, and pursue justice and compensation for the physical, emotional, and financial damages inflicted upon nursing home residents.

Nursing home abuse can include physical abuse in the forms of hitting, shoving, punching, or slapping which may result in broken and fractured bones, bruises, contusions, and more. Abuse can also include financial abuse such as writing checks from a patient’s bank account; stealing money, jewelry, or other valuables; or getting patients involved in financial schemes they do not understand or do not desire.

It can also be emotional such as screaming, yelling, and using tones that frighten patients. Sadly, sexual abuse in nursing homes occurs more frequently than most people realize. In many cases, a patient simply cannot fight back.

Nursing home neglect can include failing to take them to the restroom which can result in tripping and falling; failing to turn or move patients in regular intervals which can result in bedsores; ignoring a patient’s concerns or requests about physical ailments which can place them in danger; and failing to provide food and water which can result in malnutrition and dehydration.

Steps to Take After Suspecting Abuse

Anyone who notices signs of elder care abuse or neglect should immediately report them to the facility’s management, governmental agencies, and consider contacting a Chula Vista elder care abuse lawyer to see what can be done to remove the patient from the facility if they are in danger of serious bodily injury or death.

Abuse in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, long-term care centers, and in-home caregivers continues to increase at an alarming rate as many facilities operate on a for-profit basis and cut costs when it comes to hiring, training, and supervising qualified and caring employees.

In addition, very elderly patients, or those suffering from memory care diseases such as Alzheimer’s or dementia, simply cannot voice their concerns.
