Bronx Nursing Home Abuse Attorneys
Many nursing home patients develop staph infections. These infections are caused by staphylococcus bacteria, a type of germ that can be passed from person to person. While most people who contract a staph infection do not suffer serious health complications, some individuals with a staph infection may suffer serious injury or even death.
Since nursing home patients often suffer from health problems, their immune systems may find it more difficult to fight off a staph infection, or any other infection. While it is very difficult to determine the cause of staph infections, MRSA and other infections, such infections may in some cases be a warning sign that a nursing home patient is not receiving proper care. This is particularly true if a patient has suffered multiple infections.
