Nursing Home Abuse FAQ's

Indiana nursing homes are licensed and regulated by the state, and our investigation of conditions of substandard care or abuse will include the past history of complaints and violations that are on record with the regulators. Situations that can support a lawsuit for personal injury damages against a nursing home include the following:

  • Inadequate sanitation, nutrition, or hydration
  • Poor supervision that results in falls or unattended wandering by patients
  • Untreated bedsores, pressure ulcers, or decubitus ulcers
  • Mistakes in medication or erratic administration of prescription drugs
  • Criminal attacks against patients, including violent assaults and rapes

Some negligent or abusive conditions at nursing homes reflect inadequate background checks of employees, poor supervision, a lack of training, and other personnel matters that can be avoided or resolved through better administrative practices. Whatever the cause, however, serious conditions of patient neglect or abuse in nursing homes can undermine the dignity and comfort of an elderly person's last years of life.

If you are concerned about the welfare of an elderly parent or relative who is dependent on the quality of care at a nursing home for most or all of their needs, contact the Law Offices of Tony Zirkle for a free consultation with an experienced personal injury lawyer in Indianapolis, South Bend, Fort Wayne, or Crown Point.
