NURSING HOME NEGLECT IN ROANOKE, VA

Virginia Elder Care Abuse Lawyers Based in Roanoke

The nationwide number of abuse reports in nursing homes has grown significantly and has a likelihood of growing even more as the boomer population ages. Nursing home and elder abuse are heinous acts that include: 

  • Physical abuse
  • Psychological/mental abuse
  • Financial (fiduciary) abuse
  • Neglect
  • Abandonment
  • Abduction
  • Isolation

When you make the difficult decision to put your parent in a nursing home, you do so only because you believe it is the best option for your parent and your family and because you entrust that the nursing home facility will take good care of your parent.  But sometimes nursing home facilities fail to honor their duty to provide reasonable and adequate care.  And uncovering patterns of nursing home neglect or abuse is a challenging task.  If you suspect that your parent or loved one is being abused, Altizer & Altizer can and will help.

Our success with cases of nursing home neglect and abuse in Virginia is based on a comprehensive knowledge of the law, detailed medical research, and thorough preparation. It is also the result of our dedication to protecting our valued elders from abuse and neglect. Contact us if you believe someone has violated a Roanoke injury law.
