Clearwater Personal Injury Lawyer

Home health care is a growing trend in the US and regarded as a way to keep individuals healthier happier. It is also cost effective as nursing home care costs an average of $20,000 compared to $6,000 for Medicaid.

Therefore, the second and third fastest growing occupations in the United States are certified nursing assistants and aides who are hired to provide nonmedical assistance. There are 1.6 million people who work as home aides. Although home care is often thought of as a way to avoid nursing home abuse, the elderly still may be ill treated. Non medical aids do no need a license or a background check to practice in at least 22 states.

If you suspect elder abuse has occurred, contact the Clearwater personal injury lawyers at the firm of Tragos & Sartes today by calling 727-441-9030 today.
