Nursing Home Negligence and Bedsores

Our firm has been active over recent years and especially in the last year in seeking compensation from nursing homes, rehab centers, and in some cases hospitals - for their negligence in allowing patients to become afflicted with de cubitus ulcers, commonly known as bedsores.

Most of the victims are elderly people who have had some recent operations, such as a hip replacement or are bedridden for some other cause. These people generally need assistance to be turned in bed, and without proper attention to their turning needs, in some facilities bedsores can become rifle and so deep that they are highly resistant to treatment.

We have participated recently in bringing pre suits and suits in several such cases and a most recent case was settled for two hundred twenty five thousand (225,000.00) dollars.
