Nursing home residents are often vulnerable to developing bedsores because of certain medical conditions, such as diabetes, and because many of them no longer have the ability to move without assistance. Nursing home staff are supposed to be trained to deal with these issues and, in fact, are required to move patients at regular intervals to prevent bedsores from developing.
Unfortunately, the nursing home industry has a well-recognized habit of putting profits before patient care by leaving facilities understaffed and by placing patients in the hands of unqualified attendants, poorly trained nurses, or abusive staff members. Non-profit providers often fall short of their responsibilities, too. If your loved one is suffering from bedsores in a Memphis nursing home, contact our nursing home abuse lawyers today.
