San Bernardino Nursing Home Abuse Attorney

With rising longevity and a growing number of elderly people, nursing home abuse is also on the rise.  Every nursing home resident should be entitled to dignity, respect, and proper medical care, no matter what their age or condition. Residents should not live in fear of discrimination, abuse or retaliation. Nursing home abuse and nursing home neglect is not only disturbing, but can also be life-threatening and may lead to the need for increased medical care or hospitalization.

Nursing Home Neglect

Nursing home neglect may be caused by understaffed or overpopulated care facilities. Most nursing homes are operated for profit, and many nursing homes are part of a chain operation. However, there is no excuse for neglectful care at a nursing home care facility. Both state and federal laws mandate that nursing homes provide appropriate care to nursing home residents and patients.  Negative effects of nursing home neglect may be:

  • Bedsores
  • Malnutrition
  • Dehydration
  • Ulcers
  • Pressure sores
  • Falls

Failure to supervise a patient can also constitute nursing home neglect. Leaving a nursing home resident in the sun for too long could result in burn injuries that are due to the negligence of the car provider.

Nursing Home Abuse

Physical abuse and sexual abuse of the elderly is unfortunately all too common and often unreported to the police. In some cases, the elderly may not be able to communicate what they are experiencing to loved ones and family members.  In other cases, nursing home residents will be afraid to report nursing home abuse to family members because they fear increased abuse. Examples of signs of physical abuse in nursing home residents are:

  • black eyes
  • bone fractures
  • bruises
  • cuts
  • lacerations
  • open wounds
  • rope marks
  • sudden change in behavior
  • welts

Abuse can also include overmedicating, force feeding, or drugging as well as psychological abuse, and even isolation or imprisonment.
