Nursing Home Abuse

When you entrust the care and well-being of your loved one to a nursing home, you do so with a sense that your loved one will receive proper care and attention. When this isn’t the case, and your loved one instead becomes the victim of nursing home abuse, you’re likely angry and sad and have many questions. The nursing home abuse lawyers of Lundy Law are dedicated to helping the families of Pennsylvania, Delaware, or New Jersey nursing home abuse victims get the answers they need and see those responsible held accountable for their negligent actions.

A Matter of Rights
Patients in nursing homes have the following rights:

• The right to access information about the facility and its services; to contact the state’s ombudsman (a person who assists patients who have complaints) and advocacy groups; and to view the state survey reports on the facility.
• The right to participate in their care, receive adequate care, be informed of their medical condition, participate in treatment and discharge planning, refuse medication and therapy, be offered alternative means of treatment, and review their medical records.
• The right to select their physicians and participate in facility and community activities as well as resident councils.
• The right to privacy and confidentiality as well as access to entities and individuals providing health, legal, social, or other services.
• The right to be treated with dignity, respect, and consideration and to have freedom from mental/physical abuse and physical/chemical restraints.
• The right to security for their possessions.
• The right to voice any concerns or complaints without fear and to have these grievances resolved promptly.
