Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect

Advocates for the Frail and Vulnerable

We pursue treatment and financial compensation for victims of nursing home abuse and neglect. Legal action can encourage nursing homes to follow accepted standards of care for all of their residents. If your loved one is being abused, we will explore all options of care for them.

We represent people who have suffered nursing home abuse and neglect in a variety of ways, including:

• Bed sores can develop when patients are not repositioned frequently enough. Complications can be fatal.
• Falling accidents can often be avoided when a fall prevention plan is in place and the facility has enough staff members to assist residents.
• Physical abuse includes slapping, hitting, kicking or otherwise striking a resident.
• Sexual abuse of vulnerable nursing home residents by staff or other residents is far too common.
• Malnutrition and dehydration are common signs of nursing home negligence.

The attorneys at Popowski & Shirley, P.A. believe that nursing home residents deserve to be treated with care, dignity, and respect.
