Treatment decisions made by corporations have resulted in the denial of medical care and treatment, and unnecessary suffering and avoidable death. Such malpractice as cancer misdiagnoses and untimely treatment of heart disease can be traced to substandard medical treatment provided in an effort to cut financial corners.

Nursing Home Abuse Lawyer
When an elderly or disabled loved one can no longer care for themselves, their care may be entrusted to professionals in nursing home and assisted living institutions. Approximately 1.5 million elderly and disabled Americans live in nearly 17,000 nursing homes nationwide. Unfortunately, many of these facilities are under-funded and understaffed, which has resulted in incidence of neglect and abuse.
The House Committee on Government Reform recently found nearly 9,000 instances of nursing home resident abuse over a two-year period. Such elder abuse includes negligent care that results in severe bedsores, dehydration and inadequate nourishment. Injuries sustained by nursing home residents are often the consequence of:
• Inappropriate use of physical restraints
• Overuse of sedatives
• Unnecessary use of catheters
