Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect in Texas: Protecting Your Loved One When Care Turns Into Harm
Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect in Texas: Protecting Your Loved One When Care Turns Into Harm
Families trust nursing homes with the most vulnerable people in their lives — that trust must be honored.
Nursing Home Neglect Is a Growing Crisis
Montgomery County has seen tremendous population growth in recent years, including an expanding elderly community in The Woodlands, Conroe, Willis, and Magnolia. While many facilities provide appropriate care, far too many prioritize profit over people — leading to falls, bedsores, malnutrition, and even wrongful death.
When a nursing home cuts corners on staffing, supervision, or medical care, residents suffer. That’s not an “accident.” It’s negligence.
Signs of Abuse or Neglect
- Unexplained bruises or fractures
- Sudden weight loss or dehydration
- Pressure sores (bedsores)
- Poor hygiene and dirty bedding
- Medication errors
- Unusual fear, anxiety, or withdrawal
If something feels wrong — it probably is.
Who Is Responsible?
We hold accountable:
- The facility owner
- Administrators and management
- Negligent nurses and staff
- Medical providers who ignore symptoms
We investigate staffing levels, training failures, and complaints history.
Texas Law Protects Residents
Under the Texas Health & Safety Code, residents have the right to safe care and dignity. When those rights are violated, families may recover damages for:
- Medical costs to treat injuries
- Pain, trauma, and emotional suffering
- Disability and loss of mobility
- Wrongful death
