The fact that someone resides in a nursing home means they do not have the physical or mental abilities needed to take care of themselves. It is the nursing home's responsibility to do that. And a very important part of that responsibility is making sure that residents get the right nutrition and the appropriate care.
Malnutrition, or malnourishment, has been linked to a number of complications — many of which are especially serious or even life-threatening for the elderly.
Understaffing and poor supervision or monitoring practices are the underlying causes in most cases of malnutrition. Our attorneys know how to investigate these cases and have the experience and resources it takes to achieve the kind of results you deserve.
