Oklahoma City Nursing Home Abuse Lawyer

Holding Negligent Nursing Homes in Oklahoma Accountable 

Placing an elderly loved one in a nursing home or assisted living facility can be difficult, particularly when one considers the potential for abuse or neglect in certain facilities. We shouldn't have to worry about whether our loved one will be subjected to ill-treatment at a nursing home, but unfortunately, this is something to think about when choosing a nursing home. Even after selecting a reputable facility, it is essential to keep a close eye on your loved one.

An attorney at the Law Offices of Stipe & Belote can help you explore your options in taking legal action against the responsible facility or caregiver to stop the abuse from occurring and seek financial damages for medical care and other related expenses to the maltreatment.

Types of Nursing Home Abuse 

There are many different types of nursing home abuse or negligence. These may be related to intentional misconduct, as in situations involving physical abuse, sexual abuse, or emotional abuse. They may also be related to neglect, a failure to provide proper treatment or care under the circumstances. Medical malpractice, bedsores, medication errors, dehydration, malnutrition, and poor supervision are all examples of nursing home negligence.
