Medical Malpractice in Nursing Homes
Medical malpractice is an act or omission by a health care provider which deviates from accepted standards of practice. It can cause injury to the patient or substantial loss of income. Medical malpractice also encompasses abuse and negligence that happens within nursing and rest homes. Nursing home abuse is intentional treatment, mistreatment or non-treatment of a patient by nursing or rest home personnel which results in injury and harm to a patient. With decades of experience, the Accident Recovery Team works tirelessly on behalf of Kansans who’ve fallen victim to medical malpractice.
What Malpractice Looks Like in a Nursing Home
The first case type comes from negligence. Nursing home negligence claims arise out of harm caused by someone’s carelessness or unintentional conduct. Whether caused by negligence or accidental error, medical professionals are often the ones responsible. It’s important to work with qualified legal counsel to build a compelling case so you receive fair compensation. The second type of nursing home malpractice is nursing home abuse claims that stem from someone’s intentional disregard for a patient’s safety or rights. If you or someone you love has experienced abuse or negligence in a nursing home, the patient deserves retribution.
