Plainfield Nursing Home Misdiagnosis Lawyer

Kendall County Nursing Home Negligence Attorney for Delayed Diagnosis and Improper Treatment

For many Illinois families, nursing homes and assisted-living facilities offer elderly loved ones a caring environment, complete with a staff of attentive individuals focused on meeting the physical, mental, and emotional needs of each and every patient. Other families, however, are not so fortunate. Facilities that appeared to be more than adequate during the selection process often turn out to be a source of substandard care and, in some cases, even negligence and abuse. When your elderly loved one has suffered as a result of such negligence, you need legal representation from an attorney who is willing to fight to protect the rights of seniors and their families. At Flaherty Law, LLC, we understand the importance of holding nursing facilities responsible for the injuries they cause, and we are ready to help you get the compensation you need for your injured family member.

Legal Counsel for Victims of Negligent Nursing Home Care

In today's world, far too many nursing homes are run by for-profit companies that seem to be focused primarily on making money. As a result, many facilities are forced to operate with fewer well-trained employees, often leading to situations of under-staffing and workers who are not equipped to handle the issues that caring for the elderly can present. Medical oversight frequently suffers as well, as some nursing homes do not even have an on-site doctor or other medical staff to supervise the care of dozens of patients around the clock, instead relying on outside physicians to make rounds.

Sadly, such issues can have severe consequences, as many medical problems can develop quickly among elderly patients, and non-professional staff members may not be able to recognize the signs and symptoms quickly. Alternatively, an employee may misinterpret what he or she is seeing, and by the time the doctor identifies the real problem, it could be too late.
