Ohio Nursing Home Abuse Lawyer

Whether it’s for long-term care or short-term recovery, when your loved one is in a nursing home facility, you expect that he or she will receive adequate medical care and attention.

Unfortunately, some nursing homes are understaffed and underbudgeted, which can lead to resident neglect. Residents can be severely harmed or even killed if the nursing home staff fails to:

• inform attending doctors of changes in medical conditions,
• monitor health and vital signs,
• suction breathing tubes regularly,
• take proper steps to prevent skin breakdown,
• take proper steps to prevent falls,
• tend wounds to prevent infections,
• and more.

Nursing homes are licensed by the state and federal governments and are subject to strict laws and regulations. The Ohio nursing home abuse lawyers at Nurenberg, Paris, Heller & McCarthy are familiar with these laws, and we can investigate any potential neglect and determine if a violation occurred.
