Accident or Abuse?
Unfortunately, false nursing home abuse charges are sometimes raised after accidents because residents have physical or mental issues that prevent them from telling their side of the story, and well-meaning family members assume the worst. For example, perhaps a resident has a bruise on their face. Family might suspect a caregiver of causing the injury, but it could in reality have been caused by a fall. By bringing in medical experts to assess the injury and confirm whether it is more consistent with deliberate harm or an accident, a nursing home abuse attorney in Los Angeles CA can help disprove these kinds of allegations.
