Nursing Home Injuries

Delaware Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect Lawyers

Unfortunately, recent studies show that this trust is violated at an alarming rate. Instead of providing care, many facilities have been found guilty of elder abuse or neglect. If you suspect that a loved one is the victim of abuse or negligence, Beverly Bove, Attorney at Law, can help.

• Malnutrition and dehydration
• Weight loss
• Broken bones (broken hip, broken arm, broken leg)
