Your Kentucky Nursing Home Neglect Attorneys.

One of the greatest trusts that we can impart to another individual or organization is the care of our elderly loved ones. Anyone who has ever had to place a family member in a residential nursing home or an assisted living facility (ALF) knows the fear that his or her parent, grandparent, or other family member will be treated with anything less than respect and dignity. Many Kentucky and Tennessee nursing homes do an outstanding job of protecting and caring for our elderly and disabled relatives. However, if you’ve placed your family member in one that doesn’t, you may be entitled to compensation on his or her behalf. The Corbin personal injury firm of Freeman Childers holds negligent nursing homes and their staffs accountable.

If you or a family member lives in a nursing home or assisted living facility, you should expect a certain minimum level of care and maintenance. Our attorneys represent individuals who have experienced:

Physical Abuse
Verbal Abuse from Staff
Poor Medical Treatment
Improper Dosing
Malnutrition/Refusal to Eat/Weight Loss

The key to prevention of abuse and negligence is diligence. Some elderly and disabled individuals may be too frightened or embarrassed to report issues to their family members. If you notice a physical change in your family member, or observe a change in their behavior, it could be a sign of abuse or neglect. In many cases, your first step will be to report the issue to your local law enforcement agency. Whether you choose to take that route or not, you should contact a personal injury attorney at Freeman Childers to discuss other legal remedies available.

If you suspect that a loved one is being abused or neglected in a nursing home anywhere in Kentucky or Tennessee, contact our personal injury law office as soon as possible.

If you believe there there is an emergency medical situation, don’t hesitate to seek immediate emergency medical care for your loved one or yourself. The health and safety of everyone involved is paramount, and that care won’t damage any case. But then make certain that you bring the case to a reputable, professional personal injury firm—like Freeman Childers—as soon as possible. The sooner our personal injury attorneys can review the case, the better we can represent you or your loved one in pursuit of compensation.
