Types of Nursing Home Cases We Handle

If you or your loved one has been the victim of nursing home abuse or neglect, the legal team at Murray, Stone & Wilson can fight to recover the damages you need to provide your loved one proper care and peace of mind.

Bed Sores

Bed sores are painful and often preventable. They can be a sign your loved one isn’t being moved or cared for properly, raising serious concerns about the quality of attention they’re receiving.

Sexual Assault

This kind of violation is deeply personal and devastating. Families deserve answers and accountability when trust is broken in such a serious and unacceptable way.

Nursing Home Falls

Falls can lead to life-changing injuries. Many happen when residents are left without help or proper supervision, even when they’ve clearly needed assistance.

Broken Bones or Fractures

A broken bone is more than just an accident—it can be a sign of neglect, unsafe conditions, or rough handling. These injuries often point to deeper issues in care.

Dehydration or Malnutrition

When a loved one isn’t getting enough food or water, their health can decline quickly. It’s a basic need that should never be overlooked in any care setting.

Deteriorating Hygiene

Seeing a loved one in dirty clothes or poor condition is upsetting. It may be a clear sign that staff aren’t providing the consistent, respectful care they deserve.

Physical and Emotional Abuse

Abuse isn’t always visible. Whether physical or emotional, it can leave lasting harm. Your loved one deserves to feel safe, respected, and cared for at all times.

Frequent Infections

Repeated infections can signal poor hygiene or lack of proper medical attention. It may be a sign that your loved one’s health and safety aren’t being prioritized.

Failure to Send to the Hospital

When serious symptoms are ignored or delayed, the consequences can be severe. Your loved one deserves timely medical care when something is clearly wrong.

Unexplained Injuries

Bruises or injuries without a clear explanation can be alarming. If something doesn’t feel right, it may be a sign of neglect or abuse that shouldn’t be ignored.
