What Is Nursing Home Abuse?

Nursing home abuse involves any harm or mistreatment inflicted on residents in a long-term care facility. This abuse can take many forms, including:

• Physical Abuse: Hitting, pushing, or other forms of violence.
• Emotional Abuse: Verbal threats, humiliation, or isolation.
• Neglect: Failure to provide adequate care, including food, hygiene, or medical attention.
• Financial Exploitation: Misuse of a resident’s money, property, or assets.

If you suspect abuse, taking swift action is crucial to protect your loved one and prevent further harm.

Signs of Nursing Home Abuse

Recognizing the signs of abuse can help you act quickly. Common warning signs include:

• Unexplained bruises, cuts, or injuries.
• Sudden weight loss or malnutrition.
• Poor hygiene or unsanitary living conditions.
• Changes in mood, such as depression, anxiety, or withdrawal.
• Unexplained financial transactions or missing possessions.
