Types of Nursing Home Abuse
Nursing home abuse can take many forms, ranging from emotional or psychological abuse, to outright physical violence and sexual assault. Many nursing home residents are unable to communicate or may be intimidated into silence. Warning signs of elder abuse include abrupt changes in behavior, decreased communication, rapid weight loss, unexplained injuries or a staffer that seems unwilling to leave you alone with the resident.
A San Bernardino nursing home abuse lawyer can assist you with any type of elder abuse, including:
- Verbal and emotional abuse
- Negligent care/neglect – can include a lack of proper hygiene, poor nutrition and dehydration, failure to care for bed sores and over-medication
- Physical abuse – can include slapping, punching, or other methods of beating, and the use of restraints to confine patients to their beds
