Loved One Facing Nursing Home or Elder Abuse?
Let Our Boston and Washington DC Injury Lawyers Stand Up For Them
At Pollack & Flanders, LLP, we believe that anyone who wrongfully or neglectfully injures an elderly person should be held accountable. Each Washington DC and Boston injury attorney at our firm is willing to fight for the rights of anyone subjected to such elder abuse or negligence.
Protecting the Rights of Elderly Loved Ones
Our attorneys sincerely believe that everyone deserves the respect of others. This is especially true when it comes to elderly patients. The elderly deserve to be treated with respect and to be cared for in a kind and patient manner. Unfortunately, all too often, elderly patients who reside in nursing homes and assisted living facilities fail to receive the care they deserve. Oftentimes, nursing home personnel do not have the time or the patience to care for their patients and this may result in any of the following:
- Physical, sexual and emotional abuse
- Injuries resulting from neglect, such as bed sores and injuries resulting from improper supervision
- Fractures caused by preventable falls
- Injuries caused by unnecessary restraints
- Overmedication or failure to provide necessary medications
- Misuse of an elderly person’s property or money
If you or a loved one has suffered from any of the above injuries as a result of elder abuse, contact our attorneys dedicated to protecting your rights so you do not have to continue receiving inadequate care.
Punishing Those who Have Wrongfully Subjected Elderly Residents to Injury
At Pollack & Flanders, LLP, we firmly believe that those responsible for elder abuse should be punished to the maximum extent possible. We will work to ensure that your loved one receives compensation for his or her injuries and we will work with you to find a living arrangement that may be more advantageous for your loved one. You should not have to sit back while you watch nursing home personnel take advantage of your elderly relative without receiving the penalty they deserve.
