Nursing home abuse and neglect is a serious health concern in Oklahoma and nationwide. It is highly unfortunate that our elders, who deserve to be treated with the utmost level of care, dignity and respect, are often abused and neglected as the result of profiteering nursing home owners who fail to hire enough staff, fail to hire properly trained staff, and/or fail to provide appropriate supplies for daily living. Ray Maples, an experienced personal injury attorney in Oklahoma, has handled many cases related to nursing home abuse and neglect and finds this lack of duty and care unacceptable.
The mistreatment of elders in Oklahoma nursing homes is a serious cause for concern. In an effort to help Oklahomans better understand the common issues associated with nursing homes and what steps they can take in order to protect their loved ones from harm and neglect, Ray Maples has authored an educational book entitled Restore the Dignity and offers it as a valuable resource in the fight against elder abuse and neglect. Having handled many cases related to the ongoing problems in nursing homes, Mr. Maples has a thorough understanding of how Oklahoma nursing homes operate and considers it his duty to make this knowledge available to his fellow Oklahomans.
Restore the Dignity covers various topics, including: how to choose a nursing home for your loved one; what signs to look for once your loved one is in the nursing home; and, very importantly, what to do if your loved one becomes a victim of nursing home abuse and/or neglect. The decision to place a loved one in a nursing home is difficult, but this book can provide you with the answers you need to make the process easier.
