McIver Brown Handles Serious Kissimmee Nursing Home Pressure Ulcer Case

Jan 02, 2013

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

KISSIMMEE, FLORIDA – The family member and legal representative of a Kissimmee Florida resident has retained McIver Brown Law Firm to investigate a devastating case of nursing home neglect.

The case involves a female nursing home resident who developed a life threatening pressure ulcer after being neglected by a Kissimmee area nursing home.

While the case is still under investigation, early indications show that one of the reasons for the bedsores development was that the nursing staff was inadequately trained in wound care prevention, and as a result failed to provide proper wound prevention care.

McIver Brown attorney, Rich McIver stated about the case,

“What the public doesn’t understand is that these sorts of events aren’t isolated incidents. We see the same facilities causing the same sorts of injuries over and over again. The reason is that they value the almighty dollar more than their patients, and as a result fail to hire enough well qualified staff to properly care for patients. That is why the only long-term solution is to hold these Florida nursing homes accountable and force them to pay for what the damage they have caused. Only then will they realize that it is cheaper for them to just provide quality care, rather than pay damages to the patients they will inevitably harm by failing to provide good care.”
