Each year thousands of senior citizens are subject to nursing home abuse and neglect by nursing home staff. Because the nursing home industry has become a multi-billion dollar business comprised of major corporations, efficiency and profitability have often become more important than administering proper care. Nursing homes make profits by refusing to hire adequate staff to provide proper care.

There are many forms of abuse including verbal, emotional and physical abuse. Some of the more common types of abuse include emotional manipulation of the resident, physically injuring the resident, sexual assault of resident, neglect of the resident resulting in bedsores and neglect of the resident resulting in malnutrition or dehydration.

If a nursing home fails to administer care in a professional and compassionate manner, and you or your loved one has suffered from inadequate care, you may be entitled to compensation.  Contact the attorneys at the Law Offices of Tinsman & Sciano.  Our lawyers can help.
