Frequently Asked Questions

Suspected nursing home abuse is serious and raises many questions. Here are some things you might be wondering about.

What qualifies as a nursing home abuse claim?

Nursing home abuse falls under medical malpractice in Massachusetts. You will qualify if you have sufficient evidence to show the nursing home is committing medical malpractice, negligence, neglect, or abuse.

In Massachusetts, nursing board regulations define abuse. The abuse may be physical, mental, sexual, or emotional harm.

A Springfield, MA, nursing home abuse lawyer can analyze your claim to see if it qualifies.

How long do I have to sue for nursing home abuse?

Nursing home abuse and medical malpractice fall under the Massachusetts statute of limitations for personal injury cases. Generally, you have three years to file a lawsuit. However, some factors can result in either shorter or longer statutes of limitations.

The statute of limitations begins when the abuse occurs or you first discover it. If the abuse began four years ago, but you only discovered it this month, your statute of limitations has just begun. However, if you found out about the abuse four years ago and failed to file a lawsuit, you would likely be unable to file one now.

To know the precise length of your statute of limitations and when it started, you should speak with a nursing home abuse lawyer in Springfield.

What are damages?

Damages are the civil remedy you request the court to award you in your lawsuit to make you whole again. Although no monetary reward will ever remove the experience of abuse, monetary damages can help ensure your loved one spends the remainder of their life comfortably.

Damages for nursing home abuse can include:

  • Medical expenses;
  • Lost wages;
  • Future medical expenses;
  • Pain and suffering;
  • Loss of enjoyment;
  • Loss of companionship; and/or
  • Punitive damages.
