Nursing home negligence Lawyer in Milwaukee, WI

Nursing home negligence Overview

If a family member has been injured or abused at a nursing home, you may be wondering who can help you. While nothing can undo the damage, holding a nursing home responsible for negligence may prevent injuries from occurring in the future.

At Domnitz & Skemp, S.C., we seek justice and compensation for victims of nursing home abuse and neglect in Wisconsin. With our experience, we know how to investigate negligence and hold facilities liable for their actions. In certain cases, punitive damages may be available in addition to compensatory damages. Please discuss your claim with an attorney to learn more.

Injuries common to nursing homes may include:

• Bedsores
• Malnutrition and dehydration
• Falls and broken bones
• Infections
• Physical, emotional and sexual assault
• Restraint injuries

Lack of staff and resident supervision is the cause of most nursing home neglect and abuse. Additional problems can include medication errors, lack of proper equipment in patient rooms, lack of training, poorly maintained grounds, and inadequate credentialing and hiring procedures.

Doctors, nurses and nursing home staff are obligated to behave ethically and provide adequate care for residents. We seek compensation for injuries caused by failures in nursing home care. You may be entitled to damages for medical bills, pain and suffering, and related expenses.
