FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

If a nursing home failed to provide services or negligently provided services needed to maintain the resident’s well-being, it may be sued for negligence or neglect. Whether an individual provider or a large facility fails to provide proper care, the facility may be held responsible for the harm, whether it was ultimately caused by corporate decision-making or by its local staff. Whether to sue for negligence or neglect or both will depend upon the particular case. The best way to get advice specific to your situation is to call an attorney and provide full information about the problems with your own or your loved one’s care.
