Take Actions on Your Elder's Violated Rights
Family members often miss warning signs of elder abuse. Common warning signs that a nursing home resident may be suffering abuse or negligence include:
Rapid weight loss
Unexplained bruises or other injuries
Sudden agitation or emotional withdrawal
Substitution of heavy medication or sedatives for supervision
Inability of a caregiver to sufficiently explain the patient's condition
People who are in the greatest need are also the most vulnerable. We believe that when their rights have been violated, it is important to investigate and help them take action.
We work with an extensive network of experts throughout Georgia and Alabama to protect the rights of individuals who have been neglected by nursing homes and hospitals. This allows us to determine whether our senior clients have received proper medical care and we can evaluate each case properly.
Our goal is not only to compensate our clients for past misfortunes but also to protect them from future discretion.
