Obtaining Financial Recovery after Injuries Caused by Nursing Home Negligence
San Diego Nursing Home Negligence Attorney
Old age is a time of increasing vulnerability; a time when we most need to trust in the diligence of care providers and medical professionals; a time when we are least able to advocate for ourselves.
If a loved one has suffered serious injuries, or died prematurely because of the negligent actions of a nursing home or its staff, you have an opportunity to seek financial compensation for those injuries and to protect the safety of other vulnerable people by taking legal action.
A personal injury lawsuit against a negligent care provider can lead to improved procedures and better training so fewer seniors suffer needless injury or death.

Do You Have a Nursing Home Negligence Case?
It can sometimes be hard for family members to know if negligence was involved in their loved one's injury or illness, especially if the person was unable to speak or was already suffering from an illness. This may prevent them from seeking out legal advice promptly.
At the Garcia Law Firm, we would like to encourage you to call even if you are uncertain. If you have nagging doubts, we may be able to put them to rest. If your loved one did suffer injuries because of negligence, taking legal action can help your family member and others. Some of the most common injures in nursing home negligence cases are:
- Skin breakdown, bedsores, and sepsis infection from failure to turn invalid patients regularly
- Dehydration or malnutrition
- Broken bones from falls while walking or from falling out of bed
- Improperly administered medication diminishing the effectiveness of treatment for other illnesses
- Improper restraints in nursing home vans or cars, leading to injuries in car accidents
- Injuries, such as bruises or broken arms from abuse by wrongly hired, poorly trained, or unsupervised staff
- Wrongful death
