Big care corporations may sacrifice proper training, cleanliness, or quality assurance in order to turn a profit... at the expense of their residents.
Seniors represent an ever-growing and vulnerable immunocompromised demographic, making proper equipment and sanitization protocol even more important. As more of our friends and loved ones age into this category, standards of care must be raised.
With health concerns mounting, you deserve reassurance that your loved one is in a secure, safe environment with carers who are sensitive to their needs and emotions. Every member of staff has a responsibility to uphold sanitization standards and stop the spread of infections among residents.
Ventilators are in increasingly high demand, and equipment shortage is a serious issue nursing homes must be prepared for.
Additionally, with the increased usage of breathing tubes and ventilators, the maintenance of these devices is sometimes left up to untrained staff. The results can be tragic: complications from clogged breathing tubes can lead to brain damage or death.
Cover-ups are all too common in nursing homes. Attendants may neglect to report a fall or other incident, resulting in the resident not receiving proper care.
Don’t let them sweep your loved one’s pain under the rug. Discuss your legal options now.
