Accident or Abuse?
Unfortunately, false nursing home abuse charges are sometimes raised after accidents because residents have physical or mental issues that prevent them from telling their side of the story, and well-meaning family members assume the worst. For example, maybe a resident has a large bruise or a broken bone. Such an injury doesn’t necessarily indicate abuse, no matter what concerned family members may believe. It is very important to have an experienced nursing home abuse attorney in Los Angeles County CA on your side in such a situation, because they will have contacts with medical experts who can analyze the evidence in the case and testify as to the nature of the injury-be it deliberate or accidental.
