Being withdrawn is not a normal part of getting older.

It can be depression, it can be medication, and it can be fear of a particular person on a particular shift. All three are worth asking about rather than accepting.

Your questions are not a bother. Linda H. had plenty of them.

Her words, not ours. She and her sister were dealing with a hospital and an assisted living facility while grieving their mother, and they asked a lot. Stuart Hudson and Sareeta DuBois answered every one.

What is my elder abuse case worth?

Brad Banyas answers the question he gets most often, and it comes down to liability and damages rather than to a number he can quote on the spot.

Your mother's medication list is yours to ask for.

So is the reason each drug was started and who reviewed it. A sedative added after a difficult week, with no diagnosis and no review date, is the pattern families get told is just settling in.

Staffing is the biggest cost in a nursing home, so it is the first thing cut.

Nate Hughey explains what the rescinding of the federal minimum staffing rule is likely to mean for South Carolina families: more neglect, more falls, more pressure ulcers.

His point is that these are the injuries adequate staffing prevents, which makes understaffing the root cause rather than a background detail.

If you are choosing a facility, ask about staffing ratios. (843) 881-8644.

Pick a signpost. Count two seconds after the car ahead passes it.

If you get there first, you are too close to stop for anything that happens next. Rain, a tired driver, a sudden brake, none of it cares how good your reflexes are.

The gap is the only part of traffic you actually control.

3 years, and the clock may already be running.

Nate Hughey explains South Carolina's general limitation period for personal injury: three years, with exceptions, measured from when you knew or should have known you had a case.

Claims against a governmental entity are generally two years instead, which is why the deadline is worth checking early rather than assumed.

Nobody expects a bedsore in a hospital. They happen there.

Long surgeries, ventilators, sedation and a patient who cannot reposition are the same conditions that cause them in a nursing home, running on a shorter clock.

Pressure sores and hospital negligence: $475,000, Stuart Hudson. Past results do not guarantee future outcomes.

Can you sue a nursing home for something done to your mom or dad?

Not in your own name. A claim belongs to the injured resident, so someone has to be authorised to bring it for her.

Brad Banyas walks through the routes: a power of attorney she granted earlier, or where none exists, court appointed guardianship, conservatorship, and in limited cases being appointed guardian ad litem.
