Nursing Home Abuse

Forms of Nursing Home Abuse

Elder abuse can take many forms, such as physical, emotional, sexual, financial abuse, or general neglect. A recent study suggests that only 1 in 14 cases is reported, with even fewer reported among patients with mental disabilities.

How You Can Help

To help protect seniors in nursing homes, it’s crucial to stay vigilant and look for signs of abuse, such as unexplained physical marks, emotional or behavioral changes, and changes in financial status. If you notice any signs of abuse, speak up to a nursing home supervisor or owner, and consider contacting an attorney for assistance.
