Iroquois County Nursing Home Information

According to Medicare’s Nursing Home Compare website, there are six Medicare/Medicaid certified facilities in Iroquois County. Each year, thousands of residents in Illinois fall victim to nursing home abuse or neglect. Often, these negligent acts go unpunished because vulnerable residents are unable to speak up or defend themselves. That is why it is crucial for family and friends to take action early if they suspect their loved one is a victim of abuse or neglect.

What are the Signs of Nursing Home Negligence?

Signs and symptoms of negligence may include pressure sores, dehydration, malnutrition, wandering and elopement, overmedication or falls. If you suspect abuse or neglect, you should file a complaint with the Illinois Department of Public Health, the state agency that enforces nursing home laws. Then, you should contact a nursing home lawyer with experience handling lawsuits against long-term care facilities.

How do You Choose the Best Nursing Home Lawyer for Your Case?

Although we are located in Chicago, we are proud to represent individuals from Iroquois county. Sometimes when individuals chose an attorney they do it only on geographic convenience. While sometimes this can be the right choice, it is often the case that a firm that is in close proximity to you does not have the experience handling cases similar to yours.
