Social media companies are finally being held accountable for the damage they’ve caused.
When a relative falls and injures themselves at a nursing home or assisted living facility, the physical trauma they incur can be devastating. Whether the nursing home fall results in bruises, broken bones, pulled muscles, or even death, it can leave a lasting impact on your loved one as well as yourself and your family. Do not go through this trying time alone. Speak with an experienced nursing home fall attorney who will approach your case with the attention you want and the empathy you need.
While elderly people are more at risk of being injured in a fall, nursing homes, assisted living facilities and other long-term care facilities are expected to account for this and have the necessary precautions in place.
Do not blame yourself or your loved one.

Common Causes of Nursing Home Falls
While elder family members may be weaker or more clumsy than they once were when they were younger, falls in a nursing home or assisted living facility are more often the result of insufficient staff or poor conditions such as:
- Improper or missing gate around the bed
- Unstable wheels
- Wet floors
- Uneven flooring
- Failure to respond to a patient’s call button
- Improper staff training
- Not having enough staff
Further, falls don’t just happen to elderly loved ones. Those going through rehabilitation for an injury or people with physical disabilities may also be more susceptible to falls. Nursing homes and ALFs must take proper precautions to ensure the safety of their residents.
