Understaffed Nursing Homes and Improperly Trained Nurses
New Jersey law requires nursing homes to provide all reasonable services that a resident needs to reach and enjoy the possible quality of mental, social, and physical life up to the standards of a written plan of care. When a facility is understaffed or nurses are improperly trained, they often fail to provide residents with proper care.
Nursing homes and assisted living facilities should be places where seniors in need of help with daily living can go to seek comfort and safety. Unfortunately, many nursing homes in New Jersey are owned and operated by businesses that value profits over the needs of their residents. Understaffing is a major problem in nursing homes today. Sometimes facilities do not employ sufficient nursing staff to care for all their residents. When this happens, good nurses may be too busy to tend to the needs of all their residents.
Under-staffing may also lead to existing staff being overworked and overwhelmed. Stressed out workers are more likely to lash out at their residents in frustration. In other instances, nurses lack proper training to care for residents or make mistakes that cause serious injury. A New Jersey nursing home abuse lawyer can help you determine if your loved one’s injury was caused by a preventable accident or improper treatment.
Do You Suspect Nursing Home Negligence or Abuse?
Speak up if you think that a loved one is being neglected or abused! Bring your concerns to the nursing staff. They may be able to resolve the problem. If they do not, ask to speak with the Director of Nursing or the nursing home administrator.
If the nursing home does not resolve the issue, you may need to file a formal grievance against the facility. All nursing homes and assisted living facilities in New Jersey must have a grievance procedure in place for filing complaints. This should be published at the home in a public area.
