These injuries are painful, preventable, and a red flag for neglect. In this week’s episode, nursing home abuse lawyer Rob Schenk welcomes guest Bridget Carey to discuss pressure injuries, DTIs, and what families should watch for to keep residents safe. The Nursing Home Abuse Podcast is hosted by Georgia trial lawyer Rob Schenk.
