UNDERSTAFFING NURSING HOME ABUSE
Understaffing of nursing homes is an incredible problem and there are regulations in place that require facilities to have sufficient staff. When a nursing home is understaffed, the residents could suffer very serious injuries as a result. Many problems come from insufficient staffing of a nursing home, including:
- Bed sores
- Dehydration
- Infections
- Malnutrition
- Medication errors
- Insufficient care of residents
- Falls
When a nursing home is understaffed, it usually leads to overtime, and that can contribute to resident injuries as well. Staff who work overtime usually are overtired and stressed, and these factors often lead to serious mistakes that negatively affect the residents.
If your loved one suffered a serious injury as the result of understaffing at their nursing home facility, the Fitz Law Group is here to get you the compensation that you deserve.
