Nursing homes exist for the purpose of treating individuals who are in need of care. In exchange for this care, individuals should not have to give up their rights to be treated humanely and decently, nor should they have to suffer from negligent care and mistreatment.
Nursing home residents can range from children in need of rehabilitation or care due to long term or permanent disability to retired individuals with health problems that can no longer be cared for at home. These individuals need long-term care in a safe, clean and nurturing environment. Loved ones should keep a constant eye on the situation to ensure that negligence and mistreatment are not taking place. Visit the nursing homes often and unannounced.
In some unfortunate situations, action must be taken against facilities and individuals that are not taking proper precautions to ensure the safety and well-being of the persons under their care.
The Law Office of Paul B. Genet, P.A. fights for the rights of those mistreated in nursing homes and other medical facilities.
