Bedsore, Pressure Sores, & Decubitus Ulcer Claims

Counsel From a Compassionate Injury Attorney

Bedsores (also commonly referred to as pressure sores or decubitus ulcers) are often preventable if the nursing homes and rehabilitation centers provide proper medical and nutritional care. When bedsores do occur, it is often due to a combination of factors: failure to turn and position a bedridden resident, malnutrition and dehydration, and/or leaving the resident lying in soiled clothing or bedsheets.

The Manton Law Firm, LLC is an experienced personal injury firm that has helped many clients obtain compensation when they or loved ones have suffered preventable bedsores, pressure sores or decubitus ulcers. We select cases and clients carefully to ensure that each client receives the personal attention necessary to help them achieve justice and "right the wrongs" that have occurred.

Identifying Nursing Home Neglect

If your loved one died prematurely in a nursing home as a result of bedsores, pressure sores, or decubitus ulcers, some of the questions that we will ask may include the following:

  • Did nursing home personnel conduct proper care plan meetings to address potential risk factors that would leave your loved one prone to bedsores or pressure sores?
  • Was the social environment of the nursing home such that individuals' needs were noticed and tended to properly?
  • Was your family member kept clean and dry?
  • Was your family member given proper nutritional care?
  • Was there a pattern of weight loss? If so, how did the nursing home address it?
  • Did your family member need assistance with turning and positioning in bed?
  • Did the nursing home provide your family member with an air mattress or other pressure-relieving devices?

A compelling motivator for many clients of The Manton Law Firm, LLC is a strong desire to prevent future similar injuries and wrongful death of other residents. For our Cumming personal injury attorney, a successful outcome in a case does not just involve monetary compensation for the family of the injured nursing home resident. We also work hard to make sure the nursing home makes a firm commitment to enact the remedial actions necessary to protect others from any similar outcomes in the future.
