Nursing Home Abuse in Boca Raton and Delray Beach

When you place your loved one in a nursing home or long-term care facility, you are placing your trust in the employees and medical professionals there to provide them with the respect and the care they need and deserve. All too often, elderly residents are neglected and abused — leaving them scared, humiliated or injured. If you believe your loved one may be a victim of abuse or neglect, the Zappitell Law Firm Nursing Home Abuse Attorney is here for you. Our firm will seek compensation and restore the dignity and proper care of your loved one.

Don’t Wait To Get Help — Call Our Nursing Home Abuse Attorney If You Suspect Elderly Abuse

Zappitell Law Firm provides your loved ones with the best nursing home abuse attorney. In Florida, nursing home care is governed by statutes that include detailed guidelines regarding the ethical treatment
and proper care that should be provided in long-term care facilities. While these regulations are in place to protect your most vulnerable family members, they are not always followed by nursing home employees. Florida Statute 400.023 defines the rights of nursing home residents to pursue civil action when their legal rights are violated and Florida Statute 825.102 prohibits the abuse, aggravated abuse, and neglect of an elderly person or disabled adult.
