Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect

Are you concerned that a loved one has become the victim of nursing home abuse? This type of abuse takes many forms, including physical, sexual, and emotional. Many cases also involve financial exploitation, where a nursing home staff member takes advantage of a resident’s vulnerability to steal their assets.

State law is designed to protect nursing home residents from abuse. However, when abuse occurs, the law also allows families to seek justice on behalf of their families.

An Oceanside nursing home abuse lawyer can help you file the claim in court and can also help you pursue a formal complaint against the nursing home facility with the state.

To learn more about how an personal injury attorney in Oceanside can help you fight for compensation related to the abuse, contact an experienced Oceanside nursing home abuse lawyer today.

Negligence and Abuse in Nursing Homes

State law requires nursing home facilities to provide a certain standard of care for their residents. This means that nursing home care must meet certain standards. For example, facilities must provide:

  • Adequate nutrition
  • Sanitary conditions
  • Safe living accommodations
  • Assistance with the resident’s physical, mental, and medical wellbeing

Nursing home facilities must also respect a resident’s right to choose their medical care. When a nursing home fails to meet these standards of care, residents suffer.

This type of negligence can cause serious harm to a resident, particularly since most residents are already suffering from existing mental and physical health conditions. When nursing home abuse occurs, the facility could be considered negligent for allowing the abuse to occur.

Clearly, such abuse violates the standard of care that nursing homes provide safe living spaces for the residents. If the facility knew about the abuse or should have known about it, they can be held liable for the abuse in court. This means that the resident, or their families on their behalf with the help of an Oceanside nursing home abuse lawyer, can sue the facility for damages related to the abuse.
