Empathetic Champaign Wandering and Elopement Attorneys for Strong Legal Counsel
Champaign, IL: Office | Visit Us
When a Champaign nursing home resident with an impaired mental or physical condition wanders or elopes (escape the premises completely), they may be at risk of injury and in some circumstances, even death.
Under the protection of the law, nursing home residents are entitled a level of care and supervision that fits their specific mental condition and physical health requirements. When nursing home staff fails to provide this security, they are endangering the lives of your loved ones.
When you entrust the care of your loved ones to the hands of nursing home staff, you shouldn’t have to worry that they might find themselves in a dangerous situation due to wandering and elopement. If you and your family are suffering because of nursing home abuse, a Champaign wandering and elopement lawyer can help. Call an attorney with Spiros Law, P.C. today.
