If you can't afford an at-home service, consider hiring a nurse to watch your loved in the nursing home. It's very important to listen to the resident. Look for the warning signs found under our Signs of Abuse listing. If you recognize any of the signs of neglect or abuse, call us. We'll consult with you for free.
Residents have the right to appeal any discharge.
You will be under no obligation to pay your attorney's fees or costs unless we are successful in pursuing the matter. If there is no recover, we also will not look to you for reimbursement of associated expenses such as monies paid to doctors and investigators who enable us to better prepare for your case. The total length of time a nursing home case takes really depends on the specific case. In some cases, the neglect and abuse are so terrible that the nursing home wants to settle out of court right away. In other cases, the nursing home doesn't feel that the neglect and abuse was significant.
