Nursing homes are charged with the responsibility of taking care of people who are no longer able to take care of themselves.

San Jose nursing home abuse lawyer John J. Garvey, III has been protecting the victims of elder abuse for more than 40 years. If someone you love has suffered malnutrition or dehydration as the result of nursing home neglect, hold the facility responsible for his or her suffering.

There is No Excuse for Nursing Home Abuse
