Nursing Home Neglect and Abuse - The Need for Legal Representation

Over a million people in America live permanently in nursing homes. These people are totally dependant on the staff of these nursing homes to meet even the most basic of their needs. Failure to receive this vital care can have devastating effects on the well-being of these residents. Most nursing homes in this country are owned by large, publicly traded corporations, whose priority is turning a profit. Unfortunately, the incentive to control costs all too often results in insufficient staffing. The result is that the people who are dependant on these staff are not receiving the level of care they truly need. This results in neglect, abuse, injury, unnecessary illness and, often, death. These consequences are very often preventable with the provision of appropriate care. There are federal and state standards which require nursing homes to provide quality care to their residents. Reed, Johnson & Snider, P.C. is committed to protecting the rights of nursing home residents, as well as the rights of their families, and to holding nursing homes accountable to these federal and state standards.
