Yes, we help people in New Orleans who live in nursing homes and assisted living facilities who’ve broken bones through staff negligence or abuse, or were not promptly treated for a broken bone because of neglect in a nursing home.
Nursing homes operate under strict regulatory rules, and patient care must always be the chief concern of the people who operate and work in nursing homes.
When a patient becomes injured in a nursing home in any way, and through any cause, the injury must be appropriately treated right away.
Too often, an injury like a broken bone can be missed.
In the elderly population, stress fractures in the legs can develop over time, and if the people who work in a nursing home aren’t properly trained to watch for changes in gait or mobility, patients in the home can suffer needlessly for long periods of time.
Nursing homes have to be held accountable when they cause injuries to the people they are supposed to care for.
At The Gertler Law Firm, we help injured people get justice, recover compensation, and hold bad actors in nursing homes accountable.
