Did Your Loved One Suffer Serious Harms Because of Bedsores in a Long-Term Care Facility?
Contact Atlanta Nursing Home Neglect Lawyers
When you entrusted your father, mother, grandfather or grandmother to the care of a long-term care facility, you rightfully expected that he or she would be treated according to acceptable standards of care. Basic care of elderly and disabled people includes proper turning and repositioning to prevent decubitus ulcers or bedsores.
Untreated bedsores can lead to infection and premature death. Bedsores are nearly always 100% preventable. Failure to turn a patient or failure to diagnose a bedsore in its early stages is an example of negligence that can be addressed through a well-documented nursing neglect and abuse case.
