Forms of Injuries at Nursing Homes

The elderly require constant attention and care in order to maintain a healthy, happy lifestyle. The whole purpose of a nursing home is providing just that to them and in a comfortable setting. It is unacceptable when nursing homes and assisted living facilities allow their standards to slip and innocent elders staying there get hurt.

The most common sources of nursing home injuries, in no particular order, are:

Physical or sexual abuse: Orderlies with mental instability, criminal histories, or violent tendencies may intentionally harm elders under their care. Others may sexually abuse elders and intimidate them into silence. Both a civil and a criminal case must be filed against such offenders.
Slips and falls: One of the leading causes of elderly injury and death, inside and outside of nursing homes, is complications caused by slipping and falling. Nursing homes must have adequate lighting, railing, and other precautions to prevent trip hazards.
Malnutrition: As an elder ages, they require more specialized nutrition and hydration to stay healthy. Malnutrition is a common form of neglect in nursing homes, especially when the staff does not recognize or respect the need to change an elder’s meal schedule.
Bedsores (general neglect): To spot general neglect in a nursing home, you may not need to look any further than an elder’s bedsores. Some orderlies may claim that bedsores are unavoidable but this is not true. Encouraging daily physical activity and changing bedding often can completely eliminate the development of bedsores.
Dangerous medication: Incorrect dosages of the right medicine, or any dose of the wrong medicine, can lead to serious health complications, especially in the elderly. Overworked nursing home staff may mix up prescriptions and patients, leading to preventable injuries.

“We knew what to expect- best choice in Salisbury MD/ Eastern Shore”
If you need a defense attorney, Mr. Hall is your bet choice. My son had gotten into trouble while away at college- a lot of trouble, but Mr. Hall helped our family through the process and to a very good outcome. He kept us informed, was extremely respectful, and worked with the prosecutor to get a very fair deal for my son and give him hope for the future. I did check out other attorneys in the area and had actually hired one before changing to Mr. Hall- he is the best you are going to get- period. I would recommend Mr. Hall to a family member that needed help in a minute.

“NO CRIMINAL CHARGES!”
Trustworthy, smart and professional... The allegations against me were very scary and potentially life ruining. I am a freshly graduated Salisbury University student. I found that there were allegations of rape made against me by my coworker. I called around for help but ultimately made the right move going with Mr. Hall. William had great knowledge and advice that got my family and I to get through a tough time, and his experience with Eastern Shore and cases like mine proved to be crucial. What was a very serious and stressful situation quickly dissolved into NO CRIMINAL CHARGES against me. No criminal record, no court rooms, no nothing! Now I can get on with my life in peace. All the gratitude and thanks to William Hall. Simply the best.
“Definitely recommend”
Me. Hall got me a great deal considering my lengthy record. I’d definitely recommend him.

“Ocean City Assault”
Mr. Hall took on a very difficult case where I was looking at active time for an incident in Ocean City. Because of his hard work and skill, and his knowledge of the judge and prosecution, I walked away with no conviction. I strongly urge you to call Mr. Hall for any of you legal needs.

“Case closed. In and out!”
I hired William based on the reviews on avvo and I’m so happy that I did. I was not quite sure what to expect when my court date arrived. He calmed my nerves and assured me that my case would be handled easily. When I arrived in court, I think my case was less than 5 minutes. This man definitely knows what he is doing! This all took place during the COVID 19 pandemic as well. Very professional attorney. If you don’t want the truth from William, then don’t ask.

“Gladly and highly recommend William Hall”
Mr. Hall helped me to get out of a tough DWI case. When I first visited Mr. Hall, he was very attentive to my concerns, and immediately made me feel comfortable. In spite of an unfortunate situation, his help proved extremely positive throughout the whole process. I was a nervous wreck and he made me feel hopeful and let me know that he will be able to help me. On court day, he was diligent and I could feel the respect he has gained from both the judicial officials and the prosecutor. I am eternally grateful for his advise - he will help anyone who needs legal representation. He is a caring, knowledgeable, and experienced attorney.
“Great Lawyer!”
Our son was a college student at Salisbury University and was wrongfully charged with first degree rape, which can carry a life sentence! We knew on the advice of attorneys in our hometown to find a lawyer in the area who knew the way things worked in Wicomico County. Mr. Hall was a former prosecutor so he knows how both sides think, and he knows the judges! William worked diligently on our sons case through the help of a private detective and an expert witness to prove to the state that this was not a rape case at all and had the matter resolved to a simple misdamenaor with a "time served" sentence. All the other charges were dropped! William took the time to answer our questions and and kept us updated every step of the way! He never made us feel like we were bothering him and understood how difficult this was on our family. Most importantly, he genuninely cared about our son and was able to get him his freedom back! If you ever find yourself in any kind of trouble on the Eastern shore don't hesitate to call William Hall! We're sure glad we did!

“Highly Recommended”
I contacted William Hall to see if he could do a modification on all 5 of my sentences. He returned my letter and set up a meeting with me and said he would take the case. Mr. Hall took my case when all other lawyers told me I had no chance of get my sentence modified. After hiring him he had me a court date within 6 months which is unheard of, he had my 5 sentences modified and out of a very tough place in 6 months. I will always be grateful to him for all his hard work and staying in contact with me and my family through out the whole process!! He was honest with everything he could do and would do. I recommend him to everyone I know that needs any legal advice!! William Hall is by far the best lawyer I have ever hired!!!
