Southern California Nursing Home Abuse Lawyer Maurice L. Abarr Practice Areas and Legal DefinitionsAmericans are living longer than ever before. The fastest growing segment in the United States is the elderly population. As a result of this demographic shift, many elderly Americans have become residents of nursing homes during their final years. As many of these nursing homes are under-funded and understaffed, a disturbing incidence of neglect and abuse is being reported. Injuries sustained by nursing home residents due to neglect and abuse often involve the inappropriate use of physical restraints, joint contractors, overuse of sedatives, unnecessary use of urinary catheters, loss of mobility, pressure sores and lack of nutrition with weight loss. Wrongful death law is the area of law that seeks to provide financial compensation to the family of a person whose death was caused by the negligent, willful or wrongful act of another. In addition to receiving compensation for wrongful death, the family of the deceased may be able to recover damages for personal injury to the decedent, anticipated earnings until the expected time of retirement, as well as medical bills, funeral costs and other related expenses.
