Experience in patient care
A physician’s understanding of a resident’s needs.
Dr. Zaheer Shah has treated patients who needed nursing-home care and patients harmed during a nursing-home stay. His experience includes treating people with pressure sores and injuries from falls.
As an attorney, he has represented clients harmed by negligent facility care. He uses his medical knowledge to help explain the patient’s condition, the care needed, and the consequences of a failure to provide it.
Concerns we review
Taking questions about care seriously.
Pressure sores
A review may examine the resident’s condition, the care provided, and how skin problems were identified and addressed.
Falls and assistance
The circumstances of a fall can raise questions about supervision, assistance, and the response to the resident’s needs.
Monitoring and treatment
Concerns may involve changes in health that were not addressed or needed treatment that was delayed or omitted.
A fall or pressure sore does not automatically establish that the facility was negligent. The resident’s medical circumstances and the care actually provided need to be examined.
Understanding what happened
Connecting records with your family’s experience.
The care history
Facility records, treatment notes, and later medical findings can help show the resident’s condition and the response to it.
Your observations
Your account of changes, requests for help, and conversations with the facility helps identify the concerns that need to be reviewed.
Some cases involve medical care; others may involve neglect or abuse. We review the circumstances before determining the potential legal issues.
Supporting your family
Let us hear your concerns.
Tell us about your loved one, the care you expected, and what happened during the stay. We can discuss how the available information may help clarify the circumstances and possible next steps.
