Delayed Medical Treatment in Nursing Homes

When nursing homes fail to recognize and respond to medical emergencies, the consequences can be catastrophic. Delays in treatment can allow otherwise manageable conditions to become life-threatening.

Our Minnesota nursing home negligence attorneys pursue claims involving delayed diagnosis, delayed hospital transfers, and delayed physician notification.

Examples of Delayed Treatment
• Delayed response to stroke symptoms
• Delayed treatment of infections
• Delayed hospital transfers
• Failure to notify physicians
• Failure to obtain emergency care

Why Delays Occur
Many delays stem from inadequate staffing, poor communication, lack of training, or financial incentives to avoid hospitalization.

Pursuing Justice
We work to uncover what happened, why treatment was delayed, and whether the delay contributed to the resident’s injuries.
