Nursing Home Negligence
The Maguire Law Firm – Myrtle Beach, South Carolina
Nursing home facilities are designed to be a home-like environment where the elderly population can live safely and comfortably during their later years in life. In addition, the residents of those homes have their healthcare needs provided for by a professional, trained medical staff. With over 16,100 nursing homes housing close to 1.5 million residents, the older United States population and their families have come to rely on these facilities for their care and services.
Unfortunately, nursing home and elder neglect and abuse is an increasing concern. A 2008 report from the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services found that nine of every 10 nursing homes surveyed had been cited for deficiencies in the three years covered by the study. Seventeen percent of the nursing homes surveyed in 2007 were cited for actual harm or immediate jeopardy deficiencies. That means too many of our loved ones residing in nursing homes find themselves vulnerable to harm due to these deficiencies.
At the Maguire Law Firm, putting a stop to the injustices committed against the elderly is a daily part of our practice.
