Nursing homes and long-term care facilities should be associated with the ideals of care and attentiveness. Unfortunately, the abuse of senior citizens living in these facilities is a frequent occurrence. Many of the patients who reside in nursing homes are unable to communicate instances of abuse or neglect because of physical or mental disabilities or simply because they have no one to tell. Nursing home abuse can be very serious, causing significant health problems and even death among victims. Examples of nursing home abuse include: failing to provide adequate food or water, failing to provide appropriate hygienic care, overmedicating patients, using physical restraints unnecessarily, and physically or sexually abusing patients. If you or an elder you care about has been the victim of abuse, please contact our firm today.
