Nursing home negligence and abuse is a disturbing reality for many individuals and families of those who reside in a nursing home. Residents of long-term care depend on the institution and care of others. When they are not taken care of or abused, their neglect can result in serious injuries, even death. At Bramnick, Rodriguez, Mitterhoff, Grabas & Woodruff, our nursing home negligence and abuse attorneys are experienced in pursing cases against homes and other long- term care facilities and their caretakers.
If you or a loved one was an injured resident of a nursing home as a result of inadequate care or abuse, you need an aggressive attorney who will recover compensation against the negligent or abusive care facility.
We are experienced in handling cases related to all of the following nursing home abuse and negligence matters:
- Wrongful death
- Falls
- Bed sores
- Negligence or lack of concern
- Inadequate staffing
- Improper screening of employees
- Improper administration of treatment
If you are familiar with an instance of inadequate care or an inadequate response to loved one, you should take action immediately against the negligent home to prevent further abuse.
Under the Patients' Bill of Rights of New Jersey, a patient is entitled to an environment free from hazards. If you believe that you or a loved one is a victim of nursing home abuse, you should contact our offices immediately to initiate a case against a negligent facility or caretaker.
Our attorneys will thoroughly investigate every charge and speak to former employees who may have information regarding negligence and abuse.
We always perform a meticulous investigation into the facts and will pursue background checks, including records from the state that document other violations. Our attorneys carefully review the records with experts to determine whether any documents are missing or if the nursing home is attempting to cover up evidence of abuse.
