Making the decision to move our parents, friends or loved ones to a managed care or assisted living facility is very difficult. We expect that any elderly entering a nursing home facility will be treated with care and respect. But this is not always the case and with greater numbers of facilities, New York State has not been able to successfully monitor all nursing homes for abuse. Often, friends and relatives are the first ones to report signs of abuse or negligence of our elderly.
The Long Island attorneys at Cellino & Barnes help victims of nursing home abuse. If you suspect a loved one has been neglected or abused at a nursing home facility on Long Island, call us now at 1-800-888-8888 or contact our Long Island Nursing Home Abuse Lawyers.
