Nursing Home & Assisted Care Abuse
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: My mother lives in a nursing home in New York and I have the suspicion that she may be the victim of nursing home abuse. What should I do?
A:
If you have a feeling that your mother may be a nursing home abuse victim, you need to follow your instincts and get help immediately. A New York nursing home abuse attorney can help you determine whether or not your mother has a claim against the facility.
You can also start an investigation to see if your suspicion is correct. Obtain copies of all of your mother’s records from the nursing home and talk to the staff about your mother’s care. The nursing home staff may have witnessed something. You should speak with the nursing home administrator if you feel that your mother is receiving inadequate care or is the victim of nursing home neglect.
To have a valid nursing home abuse claim, there generally needs to be some type of injury involved, whether it is physical or mental. An experienced New York nursing home abuse lawyer will be able to help you file a claim against the nursing home, if it is discovered that poor care led to your mother’s injury.
