Morgan and Morgan Nursing Home Lawyers Recover $887,250 Settlement for Client

(EMAILWIRE.COM, March 29, 2010 ) Orlando, FL - The nursing home attorneys at Morgan and Morgan have recovered an $887,250 settlement for their client in a nursing home neglect lawsuit in Marion County, Florida. This case involved an elderly man who suffered multiple pressure sores on his buttocks and hips due to lack of pressure relief.

Pressure sores, which are also known as bed sores or decubitus ulcers, are a potentially serious medical condition that commonly affects nursing home residents. Extended periods of pressure on a body part that has a bony prominence and thin skin covering can cause cause pressure sores to develop. Pressure sores can be extremely painful and lead to infections, which can be life threatening in some cases. In order to minimize the risk of bed sores, nursing home staff members should regularly reposition nursing home residents who are unable to move on their own. Keeping skin clean and dry and using pillows to relieve pressure can also help prevent pressure sores.

The nursing home abuse attorneys at Morgan and Morgan are dedicated to protecting the rights of seniors and nursing home residents.
