Decatur, Georgia Attorneys for Nursing Home Patient Falls
The types of injuries that take place in a nursing home range from truly accidental to overtly abusive. The majority may fall somewhere in between - caused by negligence. A nursing home attendant may have intended to put up bed railings and "forgot" due to distraction or understaffing issues. A nursing home resident who wanders off may have done so within a brief moment of opportunity despite precautions in place.
