Rob Rosenthal:
What qualifies as nursing home abuse? We ask Texas attorney John Sloan in this AskTheLawyers™ Quick Question.
John Sloan:
Well, it really is the failure of the nursing home and its staff to meet all the standards of good nursing home practice. An issue that we see a lot in nursing home situations is that the management does not want to spend the money necessary to provide adequate care. And you've got wonderful people who are assisting the residents all day every day and doing the very best that they can, but they’ve just been assigned so many patients that they can't possibly provide them the adequate care that they need.
