Nursing Home Abuse

She knows that bed sores aren’t just a rash, as facilities might lead you to believe. Instead, they can be life-threatening conditions. She knows that there is no excuse for a patient falling out of bed or a wheelchair. She knows that patients in nursing homes can be physically and sexually abused and she knows it is all against the law. Sheryl feels the elderly have the right to be free from neglect and free from abuse and also have the right to die with dignity. She has dedicated a great portion of her practice to diligently defending these helpless victims and works vehemently for them, making sure they get the justice they deserve. 

If your loved one has suffered such physical or mental mistreatment, don’t hesitate to contact Sheryl to learn about your options for taking legal action against the nursing home, assisted living facility or long-term care facility for rehabilitation. By taking such action now you may not only be able to help your family recover financial compensation, but you could also serve to hold the nursing home or facility accountable. You’ll be exposing conditions of neglect or abuse and protecting others from suffering similar harm in the future. That’s important to Sheryl and to you as well.
