It’s a serious problem. Elderly residents of nursing homes suddenly disappear and wander off into a nearby street or walk unsupervised into towns or fields. Nursing home managers and staff are trained to provide close supervision of residents with dementia and Alzheimer’s but every year, thousands of elderly residents get injured after walking away from their care center; if you or an elderly family member has wandered off without supervision, contact one of our lawyers today by calling 888-959-8508 or email us to get free consultation.
