How a Nursing Home Abuse Case Can Help
You are probably not looking forward to getting into a legal contest with a nursing home or the insurance company that represents it. But we want to reassure you that filing a nursing home abuse or neglect claim is so important for numerous reasons, some of which you might not have considered yet.
Firstly, a nursing home abuse case can help ensure the nursing home or assisted living facility is evaluated correctly, penalized, and takes measures to prevent such harm from ever happening again.
Secondly, your claim can bring you and your family peace of mind and help you move on from this tragic incident. Lastly, you could secure sizeable financial compensation to help pay for all the damage that has been done by a neglectful or abusive nursing home and its staff members.
Damages in a nursing home abuse case can help pay for:
- Nursing home care at another facility
- Payments already rendered for the unsafe or inadequate care
- Additional necessary medical care
- Pain, suffering, and emotional trauma
