Nursing Home Transport and Restraint Injuries Lawyer

Filed under Nursing Home Abuse on January 18, 2011

Our personal injury lawyers represent the interests of nursing home patients who are injured in transport to or from nursing home facilities or from being physically restrained, or restrained by being drugged.  We take cases throughout New Jersey and Pennsylvania.

Failure to Safely Move and Restrain Patients

One important duty of nursing home staff is the duty to safely move and restrain patients. Patients with mental and physical challenges should be carefully monitored and assisted to prevent unnecessary accidents and injuries.

Examples of common transport and restraint errors include:

  • Failure to safely move patients from a bed to a wheelchair
  • Failure to safely assist patients in and out of a tub or shower
  • Failure to restrain or monitor dangerous patients
  • Failure to monitor patients with walkers
  • Failure to monitor patients on medications causing balance problems
  • Failure to use appropriate safety equipment
