Working to Protect the Vulnerable
We trust nursing homes to care for our family members who need special attention. We rely on these institutions to provide a safe, comfortable and compassionate environment for an extremely vulnerable segment of our population. When overworked and underpaid workers inadvertently cause injuries to those we love, the results can be devastating.
At Bretzmann & Aldridge, L.L.P., we fight to protect the rights and dignity of nursing home residents. We have personal experience with the tragedy of nursing home negligence and are committed to holding workers and institutions accountable for their actions. Our attorneys have 60 years of combined legal experience. We represent individuals and families in High Point, North Carolina, and the nearby areas.
Experienced Nursing Home Negligence Attorneys
While there are plenty of nursing home facilities that provide high-quality care, there are many that do not. Lack of proper training and incompetence in the industry create a situation where it is not uncommon for negligence to occur. The best course of action for family members is to proactively watch their loved ones for any indication of wrongful care. Common signs of abuse include:
- Bed sores
- Bruises
- Malnutrition
- Broken limbs
- Personality or attitude changes
Nursing home residents are often unable to communicate negligence. They rely on people like you and me to advocate for their health and safety. If you believe someone you love is being abused in a care institution, contact our office immediately. We'll initiate a swift investigation into the situation. Together we will fight for justice.
We Understand What It's Like
We know how painful nursing home negligence is because we have been there. Ray Bretzmann's stepson was 24 years old when he was paralyzed in an accident caused by a drunk driver. Later, nursing home worker inattentiveness and poor training resulted in his wrongful death. This devastating personal experience reinforces our dedication to providing compassionate representation to the victims of nursing home negligence.
