Produktbeschreibung

The United States has more than 15,000 nursing homes serving more than 1.2 million people. Many of those residents suffer from serious medical or cognitive issues, leaving them especially susceptible to harm. Nursing home litigation is an ever-growing area of law, and settlements and verdicts can reach the millions of dollars on behalf of injured residents and their loved ones. Litigating the Nursing Home Case, Third Edition, guides practitioners through the many decisions and challenges of bringing a nursing home case. This book addresses such questions as: * What is the motivation for corporations to enter the nursing home industry? * Why do abuse and neglect occur in nursing homes? * How can abuse and neglect be recognized? * What are potential causes of action? * What are likely defenses to claims against nursing homes? * Who should be named as defendants? * How is the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services involved?
