New York Nursing Home Fall Lawyers

Holding Mismanaged and Inadequately Staffed Nursing Homes Accountable

Dedicated Lawyers for Mistreated Nursing Home Residents

Many nursing home patients have trouble walking without assistance due to weakness and poor balance, which puts them at risk of falling when they try to walk unaided. Many also have brittle bones, increasing the likelihood that falls will result in catastrophic injuries.

One of the most serious injuries that an older person can suffer in a fall is a hip fracture. More than 35 percent of older people who suffer hip fractures die within a year.

Nursing homes are supposed to take steps to avoid falls. Patients who are at risk of falling are supposed to be provided with assistance when they need to go to the bathroom or otherwise move about. Unfortunately, some nursing homes put their profits before their patients.

We understand how traumatic it can be when a parent, spouse or other loved one suffers a serious fall in a nursing home. We also understand the importance of holding negligent nursing homes accountable for their behavior. Let us put our experience and passion to work for you.
