Nursing home compensation claims

When someone is unable to care for themselves independently, they may need the help of carers or to be admitted into a nursing home.

Usually, these people are vulnerable and rely upon the nursing staff to look after them and assist with all aspects of their daily lives. This may involve help with their personal care, hygiene, and nutrition.

Unfortunately, there are times when the care provided by the carers or nursing home staff falls below the standard expected, which can lead to the patient sustaining injuries.

What negligence may occur?

  • Patients may suffer a fall because they were not being given enough assistance.
  • Pressure sores may develop because the patient was not given appropriate care. For example, they may not have been given an adequate mattress or subject to a proper turning regime.
  • The wrong injection may be given by a nurse.
  • The wrong medication may be given by a nurse. The consequences of being given the wrong medication or dosage can be very serious.

How can claiming compensation help?

Compensation can help you to achieve a sense of justice for your suffering. It also can help to improve your quality of life following your illness or injury. After receiving compensation you may be able to pay for private medical treatment, specialist equipment, and more to help you recover from your injuries, pay for nursing care in the comfort of your own home and it may also be used to cover a loss of earnings resulting from your injury.
