As people live longer, there is an increased need for elder care, including nursing home and assisted living services. When a loved one enters a nursing home, you expect that he or she will be given the best care possible. Sadly, that’s not always the case.
Elder abuse and neglect come in many forms. Physical, psychological and sexual abuse occurs, especially to those nursing home residents suffering from dementia. There are also staffing issues that result in neglect, deprivation and financial exploitation. Examples include falls, bed sores, medication errors, malnutrition and theft. Plus, the spread of COVID-19 is now an issue.
If your loved one has experienced any form of abuse or neglect, it’s important to take action quickly. You may be saving other victims in the nursing home as well. Contact us to evaluate your case and next steps.
