When elderly or disabled individuals need a safe environment, assisted living centers are often one of the first options for their families. These facilities promise high-quality care and guidance with daily activities.
Assisted living centers have a strong profit motive to keep their beds filled and their number of residents high. Unfortunately, many centers achieve this at the expense of residents' health and safety. At Jackson & McGee, LLP, in Charlotte, we stand firm against injustice in North Carolina. Our legal team advocates to help victims of nursing home abuse and neglect obtain justice.
If you believe a loved one might be a victim of neglect or abuse at an assisted living center, trust your instincts. Contact our law firm today to schedule a free initial consultation and discuss your legal options.
Proving Fault in Elder Abuse and Neglect
Assisted living centers often admit patients requiring more care than the facility can provide. Poorly trained or overworked caregivers can cause residents to suffer a wide range of serious ailments involving bed sores, broken bones, infections and malnutrition or dehydration.
At Jackson & McGee, LLP, we use a team approach to hold assisted living centers accountable. The attorneys at our law firm often consult well-respected experts, including private investigators, administrators, nurses and doctors.
We also work with forensic accountants to help us prevent assisted living centers from escaping financial responsibility for the harm they cause. Whether a negligent doctor or caregiver was at fault, we will vigorously seek justice.
