Bed Sores

Nursing Home & Hospital Bed Sores

Bed sores, also known as pressure sores or pressure ulcers, are painful wounds that afflict those who are paralyzed or bedridden. While these injuries are not uncommon, they are avoidable in many instances. Vigilant hospitals and nursing homes can prevent bed sores through frequent turning and bathing of patients. When the failure to follow these basic procedures results in debilitating bed sores, the injured party may be able to pursue compensation for their injuries.

If you or a loved one suffered painful bed sores caused by the negligence of a hospital or nursing home, you may be able to bring legal action. Contact Corsiglia, McMahon, & Allard, LLP for a free consultation with an experienced medical malpractice lawyer.
