Skilled Nursing and Assisted Living are big business in the Low Country.  Unfortunately, the quality of care is not always what it should be.  Even worse, many people fail to recognize the signs of nursing abuse & neglect, or simply assume some injuries & symptoms are normal.   Nothing could be further from the truth. 

 

Don't tolerate negligent nursing care.   Strict rules and regulations regarding nursing care must be followed.  And when nursing facilities take short cuts, our loved ones suffer.  Some of the most common signs of nursing abuse and neglect include:

 

• Bed Sores

• Unassisted Falls

• Medication Errors

• Malnutrition

• Dehydration

• Bed Bugs

• Pneumonia 

• Infections

​​

Abuse & neglect is not only actionable in civil court, but should be reported to state and local authorities who will investigate.  If your friend or loved is a victim of nursing abuse & neglect, call Bauer & Metro.  Get educated and learn your rights.  We will answer all of your questions during your free consultation.   If you can't come to our offices, we will come to you.
