Nursing Home Abuse is defined as repeated actions or the lack of appropriate action that causes harm or distress to an older person when in an institution or health care facility. It can take the form of physical, sexual, emotional and financial abuse, among others. Cases may involve residents of nursing homes and other long-term care facilities who have suffered physical and/or psychological harm due to negligent or intentional acts of their caregivers. A nursing home abuse attorney may seek to hold a care facility liable based on legal theories like negligent screening and supervision of employees, or improper facility maintenance.
Mannford is a town in Creek, Pawnee, and Tulsa counties in the northeastern part of the U.S. state of Oklahoma. The population was 2,095 at the 2000 census. A bedroom community of Tulsa sitting on Lake Keystone, this town is known as the Striped Bass Capital of the World. The town nearly became extinct in the early 1960s when the entire town had to move due to the creation of Lake Keystone. Mannford is also known for its bigfoot sightings. Many hunters have been quoted as seeing the apelike creature roaming the landscape.
