WISCONSIN INJURY HELPLINE

Although nursing homes are run under the best intentions and benefits for their patients and residents, there may be some situations in regards to injuries from negligence in which legal counsel may help protect your rights as well as better understand what those rights are. Regardless of the injury sustained it may be a good idea to consult with a local attorney to better understand your legal rights and possible actions to take.

Nursing Home Related Injuries

Environmental hazards account for 16% to 27% of nursing home falls (Ejaz 1994; Rubenstein 1994). Such hazards include wet floors, poor lighting, lack of bed rails, clutter, incorrect bed height, and improperly maintained or fitted wheelchairs (Baker 1985; Rubenstein 1994)
