As someone ages, they become more prone to falling and suffering severe injury. Nursing home staff are trained to look after their patients' safety. Unfortunately, patients may fall and injure themselves due to understaffed facilities or improperly trained staff members. In the United States alone, about 1,800 nursing home deaths occur each year due to falls, according to the Annals of Internal Medicine. Many of these cases are wrongful deaths that should have been prevented.

People who are admitted to nursing homes undergo tests in order to determine their likelihood of being a fall risk. If an at-risk patient does fall, the nursing home may be at fault.
