Nursing Home Falls

The Law Offices of Joseph J. Cariglia, P.C.

A fall due to improperly placed bed rails or wheel-stops can have catastrophic results for an elderly patient. We count on nursing home caregivers and other health professionals to supervise and assist our loved ones in their daily functions. When they do not, it can lead to serious injuries that could have been prevented.

The Law Offices of Joseph J. Cariglia, P.C., stands up for the rights of victims of nursing home neglect and abuse in Massachusetts and their families. As seasoned personal injury attorneys, we use our expertise and experience to help our clients obtain full and fair compensation for injuries sustained due to the negligence of others.

Standing Up for the Elderly

An elderly patient who has demonstrated a pattern of repeated falls should be monitored closely by nursing home staff. If caregivers ignore monitoring devices or call signals, patients may attempt to move themselves which could result in serious injuries. Our attorneys will investigate whether caregivers followed protocols to ensure patients prone to falling were properly cared for.

We help clients pursue compensation for all forms of nursing home negligence. We work diligently to demonstrate that improperly reported falls or inadequate care resulted in further harm. With extensive experience handling a wide variety of nursing home injuries, we seek to help families pursue justice on behalf of their loved ones.

Holding Negligent Caregivers Accountable

As a concerned family member, you have the right to know when your loved one has suffered a serious fall. Nursing homes and assisted care facilities have policies in place to document nursing home falls and inform family members and other authorities of these events. When they do not, they can and should be held accountable for their negligence.
