Charlotte Personal Injury Attorney Matt Arnold answers the question: “What information will be helpful for my nursing home negligence claim?”

One of the hardest decisions you will ever make is to put a loved one into nursing home care. When it becomes unsafe for a parent to live alone or when in-home care is not an option, the safest solution may be to choose a professional facility. You expect the nursing home will provide the best care possible, but unfortunately, that is not always the case. Nursing home neglect is on the rise, and incidences of abuse and neglect in these facilities are devastating to families. If your loved one suffered neglect or abuse in a nursing home, the negligent party should be held responsible.
