Nursing Home Abuse Your Injury, Our Fight

Chandler, AZ Nursing Home Abuse Lawyer

When your elderly loved one can no longer take care of themselves within their own homes, or when you can no longer house them and take care of them in your home, you likely will come to the decision with them to move them into a nursing home. This gives the around-the-clock care and attention that they need while allowing them to maintain the independence that they want. Unfortunately, long-term care facilities don’t always treat residents properly.

If a staff member or fellow resident harms your loved one and physically, emotionally, or financially abuses them, then you could use the help of our Chandler, AZ nursing home abuse lawyer. We’ll be able to represent your elderly family member and stand up for their rights. That way, you can get justice for their mistreatment. We’ll handle the legal side of things so that you can focus on their recovery and finding a safer facility.

Ratings of Nursing Homes in Chandler, AZ

Considering the different facilities that your loved one could live in can be a daunting task. You’re determining where they’ll spend all their time and the level of care that they’ll receive. Of course, you do your best to pick a highly-rated nursing home so that they get great treatment and have a high quality of life, but sometimes those ratings don’t matter.

Or you could unknowingly have chosen a facility that has low ratings, or even has had reported abuse. It’s never too late to remove your loved one from an abusive long-term care facility—as soon as you suspect the abuse or neglect, you should take action and get them to safety. However, there are ways you can predict which facilities mistreat their residents and avoid placing your loved ones there.

Medicare has a helpful tool on their website that gives the ratings of nursing homes in your area so that you can make an informed choice. In the Chandler area, there are 15 nursing homes in the 10-mile radius of the city. Of these facilities, these are the ratings received:

  • 6 much above average
  • 3 above average
  • 2 average
  • 2 below average
  • 2 much below average

Of those ratings, one nursing home has been reported as being cited for potential issues relating to abuse of their residents. The other facilities have not been flagged for abuse, even those rated poorly, but that doesn’t mean that abuse doesn’t happen there. While this tool helps you make decisions and see which facilities have been problems for other people, that doesn’t mean that your loved one will have a perfect experience at a highly rated facility.

It’s important to pay attention to how your loved one is treated at their nursing home, regardless of how it’s rated on this site. They could still be abused and need help. Our Chandler, AZ nursing home abuse attorney is here to help you stand up for your elderly family member’s rights.

    "Thank God we found him. He really seemed to care about our family."
    Mr. Buckingham won our case after two other law firms said it would be impossible to win. He knew the medicine better than the experts in the case. I guess the fact that he’s also a doctor was a great help.
    Former Client
    "He truly was impressive."
    Mr. Buckingham flew to the East Coast several times & understood how a correct gall bladder surgery is supposed to be done better than the surgeon. He was very knowledgeable & precise.
    Former Client
    "If you want real-life heroes contact these guys. They cared when no one else did."
    When I first contacted Mr.Vega, I knew he was different because he listened to me with compassion. Mr. Vega and his team gave me hope and most important they gave my son a better life.
    Former Client
    "Adrian Vega and his law firm changed my family's life."
    They fought for my injured baby and made sure we would be taken care of for the rest of our lives. I highly recommend this law firm.
    Former Client
    "My family is better off having them in our corner."
    We turned to him when we had nowhere else to go. Turns out it was the best decision we could have ever made. They represented us in a difficult case and made those responsible accountable for their actions.
    Former Client
    "Nothing but the best of the best."
    This was an experience I'll never forget and felt like family and not a business associate. Adrian kept me informed and up to date on all matters of the lawsuit. Needless to say, I received more ( much more ) than expected...
    Former Client
    "Very professional firm and well knowledgeable!"
    I would highly recommend using Buckingham & Vega if you have been injured in an accident. Very professional firm and well knowledgeable!
