Nursing Home Negligence

New York Nursing Home Negligence Attorney

Many women take on the responsibility of caring for their loved ones. When they are unable to manage the level of care needed by a parent or grandparent, they may turn to a nursing home care facility to take on the medical needs of an elderly relative. For women and families who place their loved ones in nursing home facilities, it can be devastating to discover that the patient was neglected, improperly treated, or even abused while a resident of a care facility.

Kramer & Dunleavy, LLP is a firm seeking to protect the lives of vulnerable adults. We routinely work with victims and families to confront negligent owners and employees of nursing homes.

An injury to an elderly person can mean life-altering infections, lacerations, or broken limbs. It takes longer older people to recover and, in many cases, even minor injuries can lead to the wrongful death of an elderly person. If your loved one has suffered from nursing home neglect or elder abuse, our attorneys at Kramer & Dunleavy, LLP, are available to assert your rights and recover just compensation for any injury or loss.
