Even in the finest communities, skilled nursing facilities have problems. When those problems exceed legal boundaries, we at the Law Offices of Ben Yeroushalmi are here to help you. For instance, the amount of time a Registered Nurse (RN) is able to spend with each patient in a nursing home has a direct effect on his or her well being and the avoidance of injuries or suffering. Registered Nurses (RNs) play a crucial role in enhancing the quality of care in nursing homes through their expertise in direct patient assistance and assessment. Consequently, it is imperative for nursing homes to prioritize their workforce policy to ensure the recommended staffing level of one RN for every 32 long-stay residents. This translates to allocating approximately 45 minutes per day per resident. Research indicates that patients who receive a minimum of 30 to 40 minutes of a Registered Nurse's attention per day (divided into 10-minute intervals) have significantly lower chances of experiencing issues such as pressure sores, urinary tract infections, hospitalization, weight loss, and decline in performing daily activities. According to Section 483.25 of Title 42 in the Electronic Code of Federal Regulations, nursing home residents must receive the necessary care and services to achieve and sustain optimal physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being, a task in which Registered Nurses play a vital role.

If you feel your loved one has been injured in a nursing home as a result of not receiving the proper attention from skilled nurses, such as failing to provide adequate care to prevent or treat pressure ulcers, please contact us today so that we can help protect your loved one's best interests and hold the responsible parties accountable.

He explained the complete case process (as I had never filed a case with anyone) Ben kept my sister and I notified of every email or correspondence he had with the opposing council. Gloria

I had a heartfelt and memorable experience with Ben , very genuine and I can tell he loves what he does. His determination shows beautifully and it is amazing. In my opinion it is very rare you find people who love what they're doing and it shows. Not wanting to get religious on an review but, God introduced me to Ben for a reason. Summer
★★★★★
Ben was wonderful. He took our case when no one else was interested or wanted way to much money. We would highly recommend Ben because he really listens and takes your situation into consideration. We settled our case and we were only unhappy with one thing and that was the confidentiality clause but that was not Ben's fault it came with the deal. June
