Our Michigan nursing home abuse lawyers handle cases involving nursing home negligence for residents who suffer injuries and resident's family members who have lost a loved one in a Michigan health care facility such as a nursing home, hospital, adult foster care facilities, and assisted living facilities. These lawsuits are filed against the health care facility and the nursing home doctors whose negligence in their care of the resident caused injuries or even wrongful death. The information below is provided by the Michigan Office of the Attorney General.
There are four general categories nursing home abuse and neglect can fall into. They include:
1. Harmful Neglect
If a resident in a health care facility experiences bed sores, suspicious or questionable injuries or death, unexplained substantial weight loss or severe dehydration they may be a victim of harmful neglect.
2. Assault and Battery
If an employee of a nursing home or residential health care facility threatens or strikes a resident or uses unauthorized physical or chemical restraints assault and battery has been committed.
3. Criminal Sexual Conduct
If an employee of a nursing home or residential care facility engages in unlawful sexual contact with a patient criminal sexual conduct has occurred.
4. Embezzlement/Theft
If an employee of a nursing home or residential care facility wrongfully removes funds from a resident's account, improperly obtains a financial "loan" or "gift" from a resident, or an employee uses privileged/personal information illegally to obtain credit cards, etc., resulting in identity theft embezzlement has occurred.
