North Carolina Personal Injury Legal News
An interesting article today in the Raleigh News and Observer discusses bed bug infestations that are now common in many North Carolina assisted living facilities and adult care homes.
One of the problems noted in the article is that the elderly are often unable to recognzie and communicate the problem of the bed bugs. This is particularly true in Alzheimer’s units.
Indeed, the problem of bed bugs is growing all the time. At first, we saw reports mainly from larger cities such as New York but the problem in North Carolina is very real.
Our firm has received numerous calls from folks suffering from the bed bug problems. For many people, the problems are not just physical (bite) but psychological as the bugs are constantly attacking them. They can’t sit on their couch or even sleep without being attacked.
