Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet
Unfortunately, as the elderly population continues to grow, the incidence of nursing home injury, negligence and abuse has increased.
Despite the efforts of governmental agencies to help oversee the care and services provided by nursing homes, and federal and state standards established to ensure the safety of patients, more than one million nursing home residents are abused in some manner each year.
Whether the abuse consists of recurrent negligence or a single incident that causes injury, the victim has a right to damages.

On July 30, 2001, the U.S. House Minority Staff Committee on Government Reform released the results of an investigation into the frequency of physical, sexual, and verbal abuse occurring in nursing homes in the United States. Based upon an analysis of nursing home inspections or complaint investigations within a two year period, the study found that over 5000 nursing homes — almost one out of every three in the United States – were cited for abusive and illegal practices.
Furthermore, this study found that over 40% of the abuse violations were discovered only after the victim’s family filed a legal claim or complaint. Thus, there is no question but that nursing home abuse and negligence issues in elder care remain very important areas in protecting the rights of consumers and victims.
For example, Wallace and Graham successfully resolved a case against a local nursing home as a result of our client who suffered from malnutrition, bed sores, and poor hygiene care and ultimately suffered a compression of the neck and resulting death. The settlement although confidential was significant. The firm is currently involved in litigation involving other nursing homes for negligence and improper care.
Nursing home abuse can include the following
