Warren Bedsore Attorneys
Warren Nursing Homes

It is a reasonable expectation for nursing centers to ensure the comfort and safety of the loved ones we entrust under their care, and the failure to take very simple preventative steps to reduce the chance of pressure sores is appalling. The Warren bedsore injury attorneys of Nursing Home Law Center LLC are committed to making certain that negligent homes are held responsible when they don’t meet their duty of care and that the victims receive the justice that they deserve for the suffering they endured. A strong legal response is needed to send the message the entire nursing industry needs to hear— that this behavior is unacceptable and will not be tolerated.
Warren Senior Demographics
Warren is a large haven for senior citizens, who represent over 16.1% of its total population of over 135,000. This exceeds both the state and national averages for residents over the age of 65 years, but there are not nearly as many senior centers or programs available for this segment as would be found in other cities across the state or country. The city library provides several programs seniors can participate in to remain involved in the community and to volunteer their time.
The Interfaith Volunteer Caregivers program helps aging residents delay the need to seek assisted living services by helping elderly residents with the upkeep of their homes, their routine chores and transportation to their medical appointments and the grocery store.

How to Avoid Poor Quality Nursing Facilities in the Warren Area
On the surface, it would appear that residents have plenty of options when choosing a nursing center for a loved one, but only 22 out of the 98 facilities in the area received perfect grades from Medicare. With so many centers suffering from health inspection deficiencies, understaffing concerns and penalties due to negligent care, it can be difficult to trust the assurances given by any nursing home regarding how well your loved one will be treated.
Our Warren pressure sore lawyers recommend using the nursing home compare tool offered by Medicare at https://www.medicare.gov/nursinghomecompare when seeking the perfect care center for someone you love because it will allow you to quickly eliminate homes that are understaffed, have multiple fines and penalties in recent history and show other warning signs that they are unequipped to deliver the quality of care you expect for your loved one.
Why Pressure Ulcers Are a Serious Concern for Warren Nursing Centers
The reason a bedsore is an indicator of neglectful treatment is that only the most simple of measures are required to prevent and treat minor pressure sores from developing or becoming worse. It is unfeasible for an attentive caregiver not to notice the signs of a progressing sore over time, which can include extreme pain, an unsightly ulcer and odor. The fact that many patients are left to suffer until long after their ulcers become infected is simply atrocious.
Nursing home staff members often receive the brunt of the blame when a patient is allowed to endure immense suffering because of neglectful care, but the caregivers are often overworked and unable to dedicate the time needed to care for every patient under their care. It is for this reason that we believe the facility is most often responsible due to poor staffing standards and the failure to invest in training and safety programs that would increase the quality of care patients receive and address their most pressing concerns.
