Did the facility know your loved one was at risk? Were doors secured? Were staff checking on them? How long did it take the facility to respond?

Did your loved one develop a bed sore in a Sacramento nursing home?

A facility should identify residents at risk and reposition them as required. Staff must also protect the resident’s skin and respond quickly when a wound appears. When they miss these steps, a small area of skin damage can become a painful and dangerous injury.

Peck Law Group reviews the wound records and checks whether staff documented required repositioning. Hospital findings can also show how advanced the injury had become and whether the facility’s account matches the medical evidence.
