If the nursing home calls and wants to discuss your loved one’s injury complaint, you should not talk to them about the matter. You are under no obligation to answer any questions regarding your loved one’s injury; instead you should direct them to discuss anything they have questions about with your personal injury lawyer.

Any written or verbal statements you give could be used against you or your loved one in the event that your case proceeds to court. An experienced personal injury lawyer will handle all questions and concerns that a nursing home will have and ensure that your loved one’s right to compensation for damages are not denied.

If a nursing home sends an offer for financial reimbursement or a settlement offer for your loved one’s injury, it is highly recommended that you do not accept the offer until a lawyer reviews your case and the offer. Accepting any offer from the nursing home without the advice of a lawyer could prohibit future legal action.
