Advocating for Victims of Nursing Home Negligence
Protecting Your Loved Ones from Harmful Care
As the American population ages, a growing number of senior citizens are relying on nursing homes to provide essential care. These facilities are entrusted with the health, safety, and well-being of hundreds of thousands of elderly residents who can no longer live independently. Tragically, thousands of these vulnerable individuals suffer serious injuries each year at the hands of those responsible for their care.
In response to the rapid growth of the nursing home population, the government has implemented extensive laws and regulations to ensure proper care for residents. However, these rules are often disregarded by nursing home personnel, leaving residents exposed to harm. For some, the consequences are severe, and in cases involving frail or elderly patients, the injuries can be fatal.
The impact of nursing home negligence extends beyond the residents themselves. Family members—spouses, children, and loved ones—frequently endure emotional distress as they struggle to get answers about unexplained injuries. Bedsores, falls, dehydration, and wandering are too often dismissed as symptoms of old age, when in reality, they are the result of staff negligence.
Successfully handling a nursing home negligence case requires an in-depth understanding of nursing home operations, culture, and routines. At The Lennon Law Firm, we have the expertise and dedication to investigate and prosecute these complex cases. If your loved one has been injured in a nursing home, don’t let their suffering go unanswered.
