NURSING HOMES : MORE CAN BE DONE TO PROTECT RESIDENTS FROM ABUSE
More than 1.6 million Americans live in our nation's 17,000 nursing homes; most of them being
elderly, frail, and vulnerable individuals who are likely to live out the remainder of their lives there. This is a highly vulnerable population. These individuals typically require extensive help with daily living, such as getting dressed, feeding themselves, and bathing. Many require skilled nursing and/or rehabilitative care.
In recent years, reports of inadequate care, including malnutrition, dehydration, and other forms of neglect, have led to mounting scrutiny from Maryland state, D.C., and Federal authorities, which share responsibility for overseeing the these jurisdictions' nursing homes.
The quality of care in U.S. nursing homes has been a recurrent matter of public concern and policy attention for more than 30 years. A complex regulatory system of state licensing and federal certification is in place, but problems of poor quality, neglect and abuse of patients still appear to be endemic. That's where we --- the national law firm of Charles Jerome Ware, P.A.-- come into action. We are "here to make a difference" for our clients. We fight, you win.
