South Carolina Nursing Home
Abuse Attorney
Nursing home abuse can come in many forms, including mental, physical, emotional and sexual abuse. The National Center On Elder Abuse (NCOEA) reports that a rising number of nursing homes across the nation are significantly understaffed—a fact that increases the likelihood that nursing home residents will not receive the attention they need and, as a result, become victim to nursing home abuse.
While the results of such abuse can be damaging or even potentially fatal, victims of nursing home abuse (and families of deceased victims) will have a viable personal injury claim and, consequently, will be entitled to a settlement for their injuries and losses.
Injured parties throughout the state of South Carolina should meet with Curtis E. Bostic and his esteemed legal team to learn more about their legal rights and entitlements. Mr. Bostic and his staff are dedicated to helping victims of nursing home abuse recover the compensation they deserve in the most efficient and painless manner possible. To date, Mr. Bostic has helped hundreds of injured parties and their families recover compensation for damages.
Signs of Nursing Home Abuse
Although some incidents of nursing home abuse will have obvious physical signs, in cases where the abuse is more subtle, it can be harder to detect. Some indications that nursing home abuse is taking place include:
- bed sores or bruising
- disregard for hygiene
- dehydration
- excessive medicating or sedation
- infections
- insufficient access to medical care
- malnutrition
- unreasonable physical restraint
- unsanitary living conditions (such as dirty linens, the presence of cockroaches, etc.)
If you suspect that you or a loved one has sustained nursing home abuse, consult Mr. Bostic for a complete examination of your case.
