Nursing Home Negligence
How can a Missouri nursing home negligence attorney help your loved one?
Every Missouri or Kansas nursing home has an obligation to protect the rights of every resident in the facility. All Kansas and Missouri long term-care residents must be treated with dignity and respect regardless of their age, source of payment, disability, health, religion, race, sex or nationality. No resident may be physically, mentally, emotionally or financially harmed by a facility administrator, health care worker, staff member or another resident. It is the job of the facility to protect residents from harm. It is the job of a nursing home neglect and abuse attorney to protect those residents whose rights have been violated.
A nursing home negligence attorney understands the rights of nursing home patients and is familiar with the signs of abuse and neglect by nursing homes, medical facilities, and staff. A Kansas City nursing home abuse attorney is able to investigate allegations of abuse or neglect and has the legal expertise to prove that the resident’s rights have been violated and that the injury sustained was caused by negligence on the part of the facility or employee.
Some examples of nursing home abuse and neglect:
• Dehydration
• Physical abuse
• Sexual abuse
• Improper restraint
• Sepsis
• Lack of supervision, including wandering and elopement
• Falls
• Medication errors and mix-ups
• Choking
• Burns
• Clogged breathing tubes
• Poor hygiene
• Theft
• Financial abuse
A personal injury attorney who represents nursing home residents will ensure that his client’s rights are protected and that the client (or in the case of death, the client’s family) is compensated for all damages, including pain and suffering, medical costs, and damaged property.
The attorneys at Kansas City Accident Injury Attorneys have written a book to help victims of nursing home abuse and their families.
