NURSING
HOME ABUSE
www.injurylawoklahoma.com
ABUSE OF THE ELDERLY AND/OR DISABLED IN
NURSING HOMES IS A SAD FACT OF LIFE AND
HIRING THE RIGHT LAWYER IS THE BEST WAY
TO GET JUSTICE FOR THE VICTIM.
THERE ARE MANY DIFFERENT THINGS THAT CAN
CONSTITUTE ABUSE OF THE ELDERLY IN A NURSING HOME,
INCLUDING OVER-CAPACITY, INSUFFICIENT MAINTENANCE
OF THE PREMISES, NEGLECT OR MISTREATMENT OF PATIENTS,
AND MUCH MORE.
A SKILLED AND EXPERIENCED ATTORNEY CAN HELP
ABUSED NURSING HOME RESIDENTS
TO GET THE COMPENSATION THEY DESERVE.
A RECENT STUDY REVEALED THAT 7.6%-10%
OF THE PARTICIPANTS HAD EXPERIENCED
SOME FORM OF ABUSE IN THE LAST YEAR.
AROUND 5.1 MILLION AMERICAN ELDERS
OVER 65 HAVE SOME TYPE OF DEMENTIA,
AND SOME OF THEM SUFFER ABUSE IN
NURSING HOMES ON A REGULAR BASIS.
ONE STUDY BY THE NATIONAL CENTER ON ELDER ABUSE
REVEALED THAT ELDERLY MEN AND WOMEN
WHO EXPERIENCE ABUSE OF ANY KIND OR SEVERITY WERE
300% MORE AT RISK OF DEATH
THAN THOSE WHO WERE NOT ABUSED.
IN A STUDY INVOLVING 342 ADULT MEN,
55% OF THEM HAD EXPERIENCED PHYSICAL ABUSE
BY ANOTHER PERSON AFTER
THEY HAD BECOME DISABLED.
IT IS VERY POSSIBLE FOR ABUSED ELDERLY
AND DISABLED PEOPLE AS WELL AS THEIR FAMILIES
TO GET MONETARY COMPENSATION BY
HIRING A COMPETENT AND EXPERIENCED ATTORNEY.
