Great Alameda County Nursing Home Neglect Lawyers
There is a significant difference between nursing homes and assisted living facilities that is important to understand when trying to find the best location for a family member. Nursing homes must be licensed while also having professional medical staff on hand at all times to care for their patients. With a more laid back level of care, assisted living locations also require licensing but provide more basic help with activities of daily living (ADLs) as well as round the clock availability.
As more than 12.5% of people living in Alameda County, about 199,700 seniors reside in this part of California. And with the fourth most nursing home residents in the state, the county houses 4,940 people across more than 70 skilled nursing facility locations.
Based on ratings monitored by Medicare.gov, about half of these nursing homes have achieved a 5-star rating in their staff, lifestyle quality, and healthcare inspections. Another 17 came in with a decent score of four stars, while the rest hold ratings between one to three stars. Looking at details like this resource is a great start to avoiding the need for nursing neglect attorneys.
You should always remember though to watch for the signs as abuse or negligence is a never-ending possibility. And if the time ever comes that someone you care about is hurt or neglected, don’t hesitate to find the best team of Alameda County nursing home abuse attorneys to help you.
