Health care professionals must follow proper protocols and maintain environments which promote safety in nursing homes, medical centers, hospitals, and other facilities which care for elderly citizens. Often, accidents happen in these caring places due to understaffing, mismanagement, improper supervision, and mishandling of a patient.
Many times, these facilities are not staffed by licensed, trained individuals. Even so, there are strict laws in California which regulate the treatment of senior citizens in recovery centers. The staff are required to provide periodic evaluations of all patients, including the risks and medications unique to each individual. Proper standards should be followed to avoid errors, injuries, and accidents.
If you or a loved one is suffering due to unlawful treatment in a care facility, do not hesitate to call for help immediately. Our experienced Personal Injury Attorneys will work diligently to recover financial compensation so you can focus on nurturing the health of your loved one.
