What should I do if I suspect nursing home abuse?

Evidence of potential nursing home abuse should never be ignored. If you think a vulnerable loved one may be suffering from neglect or abuse, an official investigation needs to be done. In the best case, your suspicions are wrong and you can have peace of mind. In the worst case, you could be rescuing your loved one and other patients from a painful and dangerous situation.

Your county’s Department of Social Services can provide further information about requesting an official investigation from Adult Protective Services.

If you need repayment for medical bills, lost income, or other losses related to your loved one’s injuries, our Charlotte nursing home abuse attorneys can help. We can also provide information about the legal system and assistance if your requests for help from Social Services are unsuccessful. Contact the Law Offices of William K.
