If you are visiting your loved one in the nursing home or assisted-living center and you think you see signs of abuse or neglect, trust your instincts and investigate further. Ask staff members at the facility or consult an independent physician. If your loved one is seriously injured or killed, contact a lawyer.

What Should You Look For Concerning Nursing Home or Neglect?
Nursing home and assisted-living residents are not always aware of what is happening to them. Other residents who know of the abuse may choose not to report the problem because they fear retaliation by staff. To ensure that your loved one receives the quality care and dignified treatment they deserve, our nursing home attorneys have put together a list you should watch, for signs of possible abuse.
If you are concerned that your loved one has suffered injuries of any type while staying at a nursing home or assisted-living facility, the experienced lawyers at the McDougall LawFirm, LLC are here to help. To schedule a free initial consultation, please call 843.379.7000 or contact us online.
