About Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect 

Approximately one in three nursing homes in California abuse or neglect the elderly patients in their care. Most families put their elderly in a nursing home so they can be given proper care in an environment that is calm and has other elderly people they can befriend. The last thing anyone wants for their elderly loved one is for them to be mistreated and feel miserable and alone.

Something must be done about the ever-increasing statistic of nursing home abuse in California. The elderly in nursing homes are at risk for abuse because of their vulnerable psychical and mental states and may not be able to help themselves. At the Law Office of Mark Bush, we understand the importance of our elderly and want to help keep them safe. A San Diego nursing home abuse lawyer can improve the situation by bringing personal injury claims against abusive nursing homes.

Not only will you receive compensation for damages your elderly loved one has suffered – you will set an example for other nursing homes and prompt them to improve conditions.
