Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect Lawyer

Each year in Massachusetts, elderly nursing home residents suffer injuries, humiliation and even death as a direct result of physical abuse or the harsh consequences of patient neglect. Examples of nursing home abuse include physical trauma inflicted by nursing home staff and fellow nursing home residents; psychological trauma, including threats of violence, the use of unwarranted restraints, and repeated verbal abuse.

Examples of patient neglect are frequently associated with falls, including falls from beds, wheelchairs, or stairways, particularly when orders calling for supervision or the use of restraint are ignored by nursing home staff. Additional examples of neglect-related injuries include wandering from nursing home facilities due to dementia; choking caused by unsupervised eating; burns caused by patient contact with heated surfaces such as exposed radiators; medication-related injuries caused by unsupervised or negligent medication dispensing practices; and a host of other conditions.
