Nursing Home Injuries

Waterford – New London, CT & RI Nursing Home Neglect Injury Lawyers

We trust nursing homes to care for those who can no longer care for themselves – our spouses, parents, and our grandparents. We can help when nursing homes fail to honor that trust.

Nursing home neglect or negligence can inflict devastating injuries upon society's most vulnerable adults – those who most deserve to be treated with dignity, respect, and care. At Polito & Harrington, we can help you find justice. For each CT & RI nursing home injury case, we bring compassion and respect for victims and families. We strive to bring each client peace-of-mind - much more than just securing a fair settlement. We handle claims involving:

• Bed sores
• Falls
• Infections
• Brain and spinal cord injuries
• Wrongful death

How Can a Nursing Home Stop Infections?

Hospital based infections are an increasing problem with as many as 95,000 deaths each year. Simple handwashing can eliminate the transmission of many of these infections, including MRSA (Methicillin–Resistant Staphylococcus Aureus) which is called a "super bug." It is problematic if your immune system is weak, and nursing homes must constantly work to prevent outbreaks. The failure of a health care worker to wash their hands may spread the "super bug" from one patient to the next.

We will work hard to hold people and companies responsible for injuries caused by their carelessness.
