Medical Neglect & Malpractice In NJ-FL Nursing Homes
New Jersey and Florida nursing homes can
injure residents by medical neglect and malpractice, either
nursing home malpractice or negligence by staff, nurses or doctors who
attend the facility. A staff worker, nurse or doctor must fulfill their
duties in a competent and proper manner.
Malpractice or neglect of nursing
home residents can aggravate and existing illness, or lead to new
disease and serious injury. Our lawyers and attorneys at Law
Offices of Yale I. Markus know that nursing homes have a duty to deliver
services within the standard of care and pursuant to current federal and
state law.
Examples of FL or NJ nursing home
neglect or medical malpractice may include any or all of the
following instances leading to injuries or death:
-
failing to insure residents receiver
their medication
-
failure to meet dietary needs
consistent with health care plan
-
not providing prompt medical attention
when an urgent need arises
-
not promptly assisting a resident with
bathroom or bathing assistance
-
not responding to residents' calls for
help or assistance of a nurse or aid
Many nursing home residents have serious
health conditions that are controlled by their medications or which can
flare up from time to time without proper healthcare and medical
oversight. Delivery of excellent health care is a duty of the nursing
home and its nursing and medical (doctors and physicians) staff.
