vulnerable. These individuals depend on others to take care of them
since they are unable to care for themselves anymore. Sadly,
countless elders are neglected or abused in these long term care
facilities more often than anyone would expect. Here’s what to do if
you suspect any type of nursing
home abuse New Lenox care facilities
could be responsible for under state laws.

Attorney Right Away

ever neglect or abuse one of their patients, nursing home
administrators often go to great lengths to cover up any evidence of
foul play. It is important for the senior or their family members to
quickly contact a dedicated attorney for legal assistance and advice
right away.
