POOR NURSING HOME RATINGS ACROSS U.S.: CALL LOS ANGELES ELDER ABUSE & NEGLIGENCE LAWYERS
More than 15,000 nursing homes house millions of elderly residents all over the US. These nursing homes, also called residential senior living facilities, are responsible for the care of their patients. Unfortunately the standard of care is not always sufficient, and a new report shows that 20% of all nursing homes receive the lowest rating possible, as given by Medicare. Elder abuse can take many forms including physical abuse, emotional or mental abuse, negligence through lack of care, and more. To learn more about the rights of nursing home residents and elder abuse in California, visit www.alawpro.com, or call 1-800-ALAWPRO for a free consultation with a lawyer.
Since 2008, Medicare has been rating nursing homes all over the country via a 5-star rating system. Since then, data shows that one in five nursing homes receives a one-star or two-star rating, as reported by USA Today. Most of these poorly-rated elder care facilities are for-profit homes, and many receive the lowest ratings year after year. Inspections and complaints filed against nursing homes are the main ways in which the ratings are given. Safety breaches and failure to support quality-of-life measures were two common factors in many lower rated homes, most of which had dozens of deficiencies listed.
