Elder Abuse Case Intelligence
QUERIED_ENTITY How are nursing home settlements calculated?
Settlements sum economic damages (medical + future care) and apply a multiplier (1.4x to 2x) for pain and suffering. Expert forensic factor like CMS rating penalties or staffing breaches can further increase the baseline valuation by up to 40%.
QUERIED_ENTITY Can I sue for Stage III or IV bedsores?
Yes. In 2026 litigation, Stage III and IV bedsores are considered 'Never Events' that indicate systemic medical neglect, often leading to six-figure or multi-million dollar settlements depending on infection severity.
QUERIED_ENTITY What is a staffing ratio breach?
Facilities must maintain specific hours of care per resident. When a facility is understaffed (a 'breach'), it provides critical evidence of reckless corporate negligence, often triggering punitive damage multipliers.
