Records are created, lies are told, he says, and the only way anyone can win an elder abuse case is by finding former employees who will tell the truth about their employers - unless they themselves are licensed - then they will be afraid of speaking because they fear the nursing home making them lose their license.
He also believes litigation is the only effective weapon available to end the abuse and neglect. "My sworn goal as an elder abuse attorney," Attorney Daily advised, "is to make it more expensive to give poor care than it is to give good care."
"I want business to know you have to do it right," he warns, "or I am going to come after you."
"I want juries to understand that only hitting a company in their pocket book will they ever change," Mr Daily notes. "Otherwise it is just a cost of doing business."
"The families that pursue civil cases for the neglect and abuse of their elderly parents," Indianapolis Attorney George Gray says, "do so for two main reasons: 1) they want accountability for the unnecessary harm that was done to their mom or dad, and, 2) they hope that by pursuing a legal action, they are going to help prevent some other family going through the same tragedy with their mom or dad."
According to Attorney, Robert Rikard, nursing home abuse cases should enrage the public, where companies caring only about their bottom line create conditions in their facilities where our most vulnerable citizens are abused and neglected and the only remedy these people and their families have is the legal system.
I for one am enraged. After just one week of investigating the nursing home industry and recognizing the total inability to police it for whatever reasons, I agree with the legal profession, the only way to stop the fraud, and neglect and abuse of our most vulnerable citizens, is to sue the bastards.
