When a loved one is placed in a nursing home, families trust that they will receive proper care, compassion, and dignity. Unfortunately, that trust is sometimes broken. At Becker Law Office, we understand the emotional toll that nursing home neglect or abuse can take on families, and we’re here to help you hold negligent facilities accountable.
Nursing home neglect occurs when a facility fails to provide necessary care, leading to harm. This can include poor hygiene, untreated medical conditions, malnutrition, or lack of supervision. Abuse may involve physical harm, emotional manipulation, financial exploitation, or even sexual abuse. If you notice unexplained injuries, sudden behavioral changes, or signs of fear around staff, these may be red flags that something is wrong.
Filing a lawsuit for nursing home abuse or neglect begins with gathering evidence, medical records, witness statements, photographs, and facility reports. Our legal team at Becker Law Office will request and compile these records, then work with experts to build a strong case, investigate the nursing home’s history, and determine if state or federal regulations were violated. Most importantly, we focus on advocating for your loved one’s rights and seeking justice.
Legal claims can include personal injury, wrongful death, medical malpractice, or violations of residents’ rights under Kentucky and federal law. Depending on the circumstances, compensation may cover medical expenses, pain and suffering, and punitive damages meant to prevent future abuse.
