Nursing Home Falls
West Virginia Nursing Home Abuse Attorney
Due to their age, medical condition, or physical state, nursing home residents are at particular risk for fall accidents. Later in life, as a person's bones lose their density, they may have trouble walking. Illnesses, injuries and infections can also affect a person's ability to walk or maintain their balance. This is why nursing homes need to pay special attention and care to providing a safe environment for residents to get around without putting them in further danger of fall accidents. Negligence can be at fault for many fall accidents.
Some instances of negligence, on the part of nursing home staff, which could result in fall accidents include:
