When we place loved ones in a nursing home it is often a very difficult thing to do. We must be confident that the facility will care for them the way they deserve. But, nursing home negligence and abuse affects more than a million nursing home residents each year. Typical complaints include theft, bed sores, malnutrition, dehydration, abandonment, gangrene, over-sedation, sexual assault, mental abuse and physical abuse.
There are established guidelines that nursing homes must follow if they wish to provide services under Medicare and Medicaid. The Rockford Nursing Home Abuse Lawyers at VanDerGinst Law are familiar with the nursing home requirements laid out in the Social Security Act . If you need us we would be honored to help.
