Olympia Area Nursing Home Negligence and Abuse Attorneys
Although most adult children would choose to care for their elderly parents at home,responsibilities to other family members and the need to work, often make that choice impossible. Many catastrophically injured people, and many of our older citizens who can no longer care for themselves, must rely on nursing homes and other long-term care facilities to provide such care. For profit nursing homes, special care providers and assisted living facilities exist to provide for this growing need.
When a facility accepts government funds for programs like medicare or medicaid, they must also comply with government regulations setting minimum standards for the care of residents of such facilities. These regulations are in place to insure that residents have a minimum quality of care and to prevent the abuse or neglect of the residents. Substandard care and inadequate staffing are responsible for injuries and deaths due to falls, medication errors, dehydration, malnutrition, and other harm.
The trial attorneys at Ron Meyers & Associates PLLC are skilled at recovering compensation for substandard care that results in ongoing medical bills and other economic loss, pain and suffering, emotional distress, loss of enjoyment of life, humiliation, embarrassment and loss of personal dignity.

We are dedicated to vigorously advocating on behalf of you and your loved ones to recover the compensation provided by law.
