3 Nursing Home Abuse Tips

We recently received a phone call from a woman the other day who told us that her mother was in a nursing home in Naperville, and she wanted to know what the value of her mother’s case was. She wanted to wrap it up really quick, and what we told her was it’s really hard to value what a nursing home case is worth at the very beginning. So much of the value of a nursing home case is going to depend on the nature and extent of the injuries and how much medical care is going to be required. Those questions at the very beginning are just sometimes impossible to know.

Some common mistakes that people make when they have a nursing home claim is they don’t report the abuse right away. They don’t report it to the nursing home or the Illinois Department of Public Health, which is one of the agencies that regulates nursing homes in the state of Illinois. They also don’t call a lawyer right away. It’s very important to hire a lawyer when you think you have a claim because there are steps that we can take to preserve the evidence in your case.
