Nursing Home Investigations

Having aging family members that need constant help or care is challenging. It is even harder trying to find a nursing home with a solid reputation. Once you chose one with good reviews and met the staff, everything may seem to run smoothly. But what if the care isn’t what it is supposed to be? Many times, even with great reviews, nursing homes aren’t what they claim to be. Even the idea of a nursing home comes with rumors, fears of inadequate care, and even elderly abuse. Also, if you do feel your loved ones are getting abused or their attention is less then what it should be, a complaint to the nursing home’s director may go unheard, or they may not care.

Why Should You Hire a Private Investigator for a Nursing Home Investigation?

Even if your due diligence is done, bad things can happen. Finding proof can be difficult, especially if you are looking to seek legal action against the nursing home. This is where a private investigator can help. They are skilled at making observations. As a representative of the family, a private investigator can check in on a family member.

Nathans Investigations private investigators are trained to evaluate and find problems in nursing homes. While the person you talked to at your family member’s initial intake may have been charming and friendly, the people who look after your loved one may not be what they seem. To make matters even more complicated, nursing homes are noted to have a high turnover rate.

This leads to lousy care on both a physical and emotional level as low-level employees won’t care as much as you’d like them to. This could mean your loved one is not getting a shower when needed, dirty sheets, health problems, missed meals, and possibly more.

When Should You Hire a Private Investigator for a Nursing Home Investigation?

As soon as you feel your loved one is being neglected and your complaints aren’t getting addressed. Mistreatment and harm can happen months down the road, and this can cause a lot of problems for everyone involved.
