Nursing Home Negligence
One of the areas of law we focus on is nursing home abuse and neglect. We place our elderly loved ones in nursing home facilities, because we believe they will be well taken care of. When something goes wrong and our loved ones are injured and mistreated, the person responsible should be held accountable. We can assist you with a broad range of nursing home abuse matters, including:
- Emotional or psychological abuse - includes, but is not limited to verbal assaults, insults, threats, intimidation, humiliation and harassment. It can also involve isolating a resident from family, friends, or regular social activities; or giving a resident the "silent treatment."
- Physical abuse – this can include acts of violence like hitting, beating, pushing, shoving, shaking, slapping, kicking, pinching and burning. Over-medicating and the use of physical restraints, force-feeding, and physical punishments of any kind are also physical abuse.
- Neglect – neglect is the failure to fulfill obligations or duties to a nursing home resident. It can include a failure to provide necessities like food, water, clothing, shelter, personal hygiene, medicine, comfort or personal safety.
- Abandonment - the desertion of a nursing home resident by a staffer who assumed responsibility for providing care for the resident.
- Financial exploitation - the illegal or improper use of a nursing home resident’s assets or property; this can include stealing jewelry or money.
