The Hurricane season will be upon us very shortly. We all recall the devastation and loss of life last year, specifically with the elderly left alone or in an ill prepared nursing facility. We will lose power, that’s a given. So, if you have a loved one that lives alone or is in a nursing facility, how certain are you of their safety? Have you visited the facility to make sure that all their safety assets like generators are working properly? Do they even have a generator? Is there an exit plan for those confined to wheel chairs or bed stricken? Now is the time to check these and other safety measures out before it’s too late. Ask the management if there is a protocol for staff that is on duty during these severe weather conditions? How much staff will be on duty and what’s the plan for their safety and that of their families?
We do not want a repeat of the horrible scene that played out last year in Hollywood, Florida. Yet everyday there are atrocities being committed to our elderly loved ones in nursing home facilities or medical care units.

We have information that help you make the right decision for your family or investigate a situation where a loved one has been injured or died due to the negligence of their care givers. Call us today if you have questions, need information or a free consultation about the care of your loved ones who maybe currently in one of these facilities.
