The Nursing Home Reform Act of 1987 requires that nursing homes and long-term care facilities that receive federal
funds must provide for each resident, care that promotes maintenance or enhancement of quality of life. In addition,
nursing home residents have a right to "a dignified existence, self-determination, and communication with
and access to persons and services inside and outside of the facility." At CHURCH, KRITSELIS & WYBLE,

in serious injury and wrongful death. These claims include: Bed sores or decubitus ulcers; Physical abuse by nursing
home employees or other residents; Malnourishment and dehydration; Failure to provide adequate medical care or
recognize medical emergencies and injuries suffered by residents due to lack of supervision; falls, overdoses,
and infections.
