Nursing Home Falls

More than 1.6 Americans reside in nursing homes. While nursing homes provide care to those who require assistance, they can also be dangerous. It is estimated that approximately half of all nursing home residents suffer at least one fall a year. About a third of residents suffer multiple falls in a year. Sadly, the consequences of falls in older adults can be significant. The nursing home may be held responsible if their actions or inactions were negligent and resulted in serious injuries. A knowledgeable personal injury attorney will help you seek compensation for nursing home injuries.

Automakers continue to incorporate newer and more sophisticated technology into vehicles, the goal being to make driving easier.
