Nursing Home Truth

Did You Know?

Up until the late 1980’s, nursing homes used to police themselves.  Like clockwork, every time they killed a patient, they would claim the patient died because of the patient’s “comorbidities” and the injury was “unavoidable”. A multi-year investigation uncovered the truth about nursing homes – that nursing homes in America were killing our elders and covering it up, and in the process were bilking US taxpayers by collecting the patient’s Medicare and Medicaid funds.

Republicans and Democrats came together in political unity to stop nursing homes from cutting corners and hurting vulnerable senior citizens.  To that end, they formalized written, published, medical standards that nursing homes had to follow.  These standards prevent nursing homes and their billion dollar insurance companies from trying to trick victims and juries by arguing, “it’s complicated”, when in fact the standards are simple, printed in black and white, and have been in existence for over 30 years.

While nursing home abuse, neglect and errors are a form of medical malpractice, it is a unique area of malpractice. While you need to know special medical malpractice rules, laws, expert witness requirements, and deadlines to pursue a legal claim against a nursing home, you must also know the federal and state nursing standards that were created specifically to hold nursing homes accountable for hurting their patients.

Only a small group of legal advocates are dedicated nursing home abuse lawyers who can competently navigate these waters specifically for nursing home claims.  To get full justice, you need one of these advocates by your side.
