You did a lot of research before you placed your disabled parent, spouse, or child in a nursing home or assisted living facility. The facility lookedclean, and the staff seemed caring and competent. But after your loved one moved in, things took a turn for the worse.
Perhaps your loved one suffered dehydration or malnutrition. They may have broken a hip, and you suspect they were over-medicated or left unsupervised. They may have developed bedsores that turned into sepsis because no one was paying attention. You may have seen unexplained bruises, even broken bones.
When you voiced your concerns to the facility manager, your concernswere disregarded.
If you believe abuse or neglect is occurring in a Texas nursing home or care facility, call the Texas Department of State Health Services at (800) 458-9858 to file a report. They will investigate the care home for health and safety violations and may fine the facility.
What they cannot do is compensate your loved one for the injuries they’ve suffered, or your family for the premature death of a beloved parent, spouse, or child. For that you need the help of a Texas nursing home neglect lawyer.
