Nursing and Care Home
Abuse Claims
Taking the decision to
allow a non- family member to look after our
loved ones is never an easy decision to make
and you would expect that whoever is charged
with the task of looking after your relative
will treat them with the care and dignity
they deserve. It is therefore extremely
upsetting when you discover that your
relative has been suffering due to neglect
or even abuse.
Our panel of solicitors
are able to deal with clinical negligence
claims arising from injuries sustained
whilst in the care of a residential, nursing
or care Homes. Such claims can include:
-
Pressure Sores or Beds
Sores
-
Poor or inadequate
supervision resulting in trips and
falls.
-
Poor attention to
nutrition and hydration.
-
Physical Abuse
When unacceptable care
or neglect by the staff of a nursing home
causes an injury to a resident, the nursing
home can be sued for compensation. Whilst
this may seem small conciliation for the
suffering your loved one has gone through,
it often results in improvements being made
which will benefit other existing and future
residents.
If you, or a loved one,
has suffered through neglect, or has injured
themselves whilst in the care of a
residential or nursing home, contact us
today to see if you are able to make a
negligence claim.
