Too often the elderly are abused and neglected in nursing homes. While these homes are licensed by the state and must follow state and federal regulations, often they do not. The McDaniel Law Firm contacts the South Carolina Department of Health and Environmental Control in initiating an investigation involving nursing home abuse and neglect on every case. Our office demands production of records, staffing information, video and documentation regarding the care and health of a neglected or abused patient. We expose abuse and neglect, and demand compensation for our clients.
