Cleveland Nursing Home Bedsore Injury Attorneys · Ohio Nursing Home Decubitus Ulcer Lawyers
Decubitus pressure ulcers, commonly referred to as bedsores, typically occur on the tail bone, upper back, calves and the backs of arms, when a bedridden person remains in one position in bed or a wheelchair for a lengthy period of time. Elderly and infirm residents of nursing homes often require help turning over or shifting positions to alleviate the excessive pressure on one area of the skin. If you have identified pressure ulcers on your loved one in a nursing home, it may be evidence that the staff is not providing the appropriate level of care and treatment.

But we also know that when you're elderly or vulnerable loved one is hurting, it is necessary to tell the human story. The nursing home managers must be made to stop. Forever. Unfortunately, too many managers and staff members ignore the residents' rights, in favor of taking shortcuts to profits.
