A California watchdog group is concerned that eldercare abuse is not being fully reported in the state, due to a decrease in funding.  If you suspect a senior citizen close to you is not receiving the medical care he or she deserves, the New Jersey nursing home abuse attorneys of Levinson Axelrod may be able to help.

According to the California Senate Office of Oversight and Outcomes, the number of complaints from state ombudsmen citing nursing home abuse is down 40% from last year.  A decrease this large suggests that it is not a decrease in the number of crimes, but rather a decrease in the effective reporting of the crimes.

Eldercare abuse is a serious problem, and if you or someone you love has been the victim of abuse, it is your legal right to seek comepnsation.  To learn more, contact the New Jersey nursing home abuse lawyers of Levinson Axelrod by calling 800-346-5529 today.
