Nevada Nursing Home Neglect Lawyers • Elder Abuse Attorneys Nursing Home Justice CenterProtecting the Rights of Vulnerable People in Nevada Caring for our sick or elderly relatives can, despite our willingness and love, simply be beyond a family member's skill or ability. When care needs become more than family members can provide, it may become necessary to transfer the responsibility to a long-term care facility, such as a nursing home or assisted living facility. Unfortunately, abuse and neglect often occurs in the very nursing homes that are responsible for the care of vulnerable residents. Many nursing homes are for-profit enterprises that put more emphasis on the bottom line than on adequate staffing and training. It is the residents who ultimately pay the price, and suffer from bed sores, malnutrition, dehydration, hip fractures, and even verbal, physical and sexual abuse. Sometimes, even death results. When these tragedies happen, an experienced nursing home malpractice attorney can help to get justice for you and your family.
