Finding an Experienced Legal Representative
Nursing home abuse and neglect can take on many forms. It could be simple neglect, where the individual is not attended to regularly. Staff may be verbally or physically abusive. Some signs that any relative should be on alert for are bedsores, scratches or abrasions, broken bones, bruising, burns, or wounds. You might notice behavioral changes, with the resident becoming more angry or depressed, or becoming unresponsive and withdrawn. It is quite common for a family member of a nursing home residence to hesitate to report any of these symptoms due to being unsure whether these are signs of abuse or neglect, or they might fear that reporting what is observed could result in retaliation.
There is never an excuse for mistreatment of the elderly in nursing homes. A caring and compassionate attorney will take action to stop any type of abuse and help you or your loved one recover any compensation that that is due, based upon the degree of the abuse or neglect, and other factors.
