Serving New Mexico, Albuquerque, Las Cruces, Santa Fe and beyond Bedsore Lawyer New Mexico

Bedsores, or pressure ulcers, are serious wounds that, if left untreated, can lead to severe complications, infections, or even death. With proper care, nursing home residents should not develop bedsores; most instances occur when nursing home staff fails to adequately provide for residents with limited mobility and/or treat existing bedsores. 

At Harvey, Foote & Baker Law Firm, we recognize the significant physical, emotional, and financial toll bedsores and their associated treatments have on elderly individuals and their loved ones. Our bedsore attorneys work tirelessly to secure fair financial compensation from the liable parties, including nursing homes and individual staff members. Our goal is to not only recover the restitution you need to manage related medical treatments and other financial losses but also the justice you deserve for the immense pain and suffering you have endured. 

For help with your claim, contact our bedsore lawyers today at (505) 295-2245 for a consultation.

Frequently Asked Questions
  • What are bedsores?
    Bedsores, also known as pressure ulcers, are injuries to skin and tissue. They occur due to prolonged pressure on the skin, often affecting bony areas like heels, ankles, hips, or buttocks. Individuals with limited mobility, such as those in nursing homes, are at higher risk.
  • What complications can arise from bedsores?
    Untreated bedsores can lead to infections, which may spread to other parts of the body. Severe infections can cause life-threatening conditions such as bone or blood infections. Bedsores also impair quality of life and prolong hospital stays.
  • How can bedsores be prevented?
    Preventing bedsores involves regular repositioning to relieve pressure, maintaining skin hygiene, and using cushions or pads to protect vulnerable areas. Proper hydration and nutrition also support skin health, reducing the risk of sores.
  • Who is at risk for developing bedsores?
    Individuals with limited mobility, such as those in wheelchairs or bedridden, are at higher risk. This includes elderly individuals, patients with certain chronic conditions, and anyone unable to change positions frequently.
