Has Your Loved One Suffered Due to Nursing Home Neglect?
Nursing home abuse can take many forms, including neglect, physical abuse, emotional abuse, and sexual abuse. Warning signs of nursing home abuse include:
- Neglect: Signs of nursing home neglect include sudden weight loss, malnutrition, dehydration, bedsores, untreated infections, improper grooming and unsanitary living conditions.
- Physical abuse: Signs of physical abuse include unexplained bruises, lacerations, broken bones and other injuries. Missing hair and rope marks on the wrists and ankles may also be signs of physical abuse.
- Emotional abuse: Emotionally abused elders may behave in a withdrawn manner and exhibit signs of dementia.
- Sexual abuse: Bruises around the breasts and genitals, STDs and bloody underclothing are common signs of sexual abuse.
