(Philadelphia, P.A.)The Philadelphia nursing home abuse attorneys of Lowenthal & Abrams, P.C., are prepared to help if a loved one has experienced neglect or abuse in a nursing home. As the Baby Boom generation begins to enter retirement age, many are beginning to discover the difficulties associated with caring for elderly parents from far away. While some elderly individuals are perfectly capable of caring for themselves, the fact is that the majority of those who reach an advanced age require some form of supervision and assistive care. Because of the significant geographical distance between most adults and their parents, this often means that it is necessary to place elderly individuals in a nursing home.
There are a number of problems that adult children attempting to place their parents in a nursing home may encounter. For one, many elderly people are reluctant to give up their sense of personal liberty by entering a nursing home. More important, however, is the uncertainty relating to the quality of care available in nursing homes. Nursing home abuse is unfortunately an all-too-common problem in our society.
Nursing home abuse can occur in a number of different ways. Negligent care may leave elderly individuals malnourished or developing painful medical conditions, such as bedsores. Worse, abusive staff may psychologically or physically traumatize nursing home residents. In some cases, nursing home residents may even be subject to sexual abuse. These horrific outcomes cannot and should not be accepted. The Philadelphia nursing home abuse lawyers of Lowenthal & Abrams, P.C., are prepared to assist those whose elderly parents have suffered nursing home abuse to pursue the compensation that they and their family deserve for this types of unforgivable behavior.
