Once the increase in income ceilings for the Aged, Blind, and Disabled Federal Poverty Level Program is implemented, the decision will eliminate a portion of the cost for thousands of elderly and disabled beneficiaries in MediCal by significantly increasing the income threshold to qualify without incurring a cost-share🙌🏻👏🏻

We hope that this news will serve as a positive aid for the elderly in our community. We will continue to fight for better conditions!

Inspections conducted by the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services during the early part of the pandemic cleared 8 out of 10 nursing homes of infection-control violations, even as the deadliest pandemic to strike the U.S. in a century sickened and killed thousands, the Washington Post reported.

Many of the nursing homes that were cleared had mounting coronavirus outbreaks before or during inspections. If you're a long-term care resident concerned about the situation, we invite you to call us at 866-391-3292 for free legal counsel📲.

A nursing home is responsible for providing an accident-free environment and maintaining a high standard of well-being and dignity for its residents👵🏻. When nursing homes don't meet their responsibilities and seniors get hurt, we fight to hold the negligent parties responsible.

Nursing homes have been a COVID-19 epicenter in LA, with about 16,000 infections and 2,500 deaths. On October 14, the Inspector General appointed to investigate the county’s nursing homes' crisis issued the first interim installment of what will be a multi-part report.

The report states that almost half of the 5,407 current nursing home complaints have remained open for over three years and that 547 investigations involving residents in immediate danger are unresolved🤕👎🏻. While this initial report draws attention to the county's dysfunctional oversight, it remains to be seen if the investigation will address the conditions that have endangered residents in Los Angeles for decades.

Gharibian Law Opposes Immunity for Nursing Homes - Gharibian Law, APC

https://www.gharibianlaw.com/gharibian-law-opposes-immunity-for-nursing-homes/

This is a post made by Gharibian Law, APC.

The "Safe to Work Act," recently introduced in the US Senate by Senator Mitch McConnell, would allow nursing homes to escape accountability for negligent care that harms or kills nursing home residents🤕. This immunity would extend for five years and apply to all harm to nursing home residents, even if it is not related to COVID-19. At Gharibian Law, we share our opposition to any proposal that would grant immunity related to COVID-19 for nursing homes, and urge everybody to do the same🙏🏻.

Click the link to sign a petition opposing the immunity. It's effortless to fill out, and it won’t take you more than a few minutes❗️

The CMS issued a federal memo restoring visitation in U.S. nursing homes👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. The CMS is commanding these facilities to allow visitation when a facility has had no new COVID-19 outbreaks for the last 14 days, and the community positivity rate is below 10%.

The memo is loaded with language to support visitation in nursing homes and includes mandates eradicating the 6-month visitation ban that has broken millions of family’s hearts👵🏻❤️.

The California Elder Abuse Act aims to protect seniors from abuse, neglect, and fraud. The Act prohibits the following behaviors directed at anyone 65 or older:

🔷Physical Abuse
🔷Mental Abuse
🔷Neglect and Endangerment
🔷Financial Abuse

What the Act seeks is to stipulate significant penalties for those who abuse the elderly, and to remark that those commended with their care are held to a higher caring standard and will suffer greater penalties if they violate it👩🏻‍⚕️.

Nursing home neglect occurs when the facility staff fails to provide the care residents need to prevent or avoid an injury🩹.

These long-term care settings have a legal obligation to perform a series of duties to preserve the elderly's health👵🏻. If the facility fails to do so, residents are at high risk of injury.

Do you know how to spot the warning signs of nursing home neglect?
