Contact us to protect your elderly loved ones from nursing home abuse!
There comes a time when you have to hire professional help to take care of your elderly relatives. This usually means hiring an in-home individual to take care of an elder person at home, or they need to be moved to a Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF). These facilities have experts dedicated to providing continuous custodial and supportive care to elder patients whose primary need is skilled nursing care on a long-term basis in California and Nevada.
These facilities are supposed to provide 24-hour inpatient care and, at a minimum, include a physician, skilled nursing staff, dietary and pharmaceutical services, and an activity program.

Nursing Home or Skilled Nursing Facility Abuse

In our experience, dealing with elder law and abuse cases, our lawyers have come across a large number of cases in which a staff member of the nursing facility was involved. Nursing home facility abuse cases usually involve physical and emotional abuse and if you suspect an elder is being abused at a SNF, you should look for the following signs to confirm:
All nursing homes in California are licensed by the California Department of Public Health (DPH), and if you notice these signs in an Skilled Nursing Facility (SNF) you should first report it at the DPH WEBSITE,   you can also contact the local law enforcement for help.
You should also be sure that a nursing facility has trained staff members and it is not understaffed before you transfer an elderly loved one. We have come across a large number of cases in which we found out that a family member was also involved in the abuse case.  As difficult as it might be for you, you should consider reporting such a family member as soon as you find out.
