Do You Suspect Nursing Home Negligence or Abuse?
As a visiting family member, it can be difficult to know if your loved one is being abused or neglected by nursing staff or other employees of the nursing home. However, there are some key signs and symptoms that can signal neglect such as:
- Decubitus ulcers, also known as bed sores
- Malnutrition and dehydration
- Infections
- Bruises and frequent broken bones
- Sudden changes in personality
- Rapid deterioration of health
While one bedsore or other injury may not mean that your loved one is being neglected, you should trust your instinct and seek the advice of a skilled attorney. At our firm, we can help you investigate the cause of your loved one’s injuries or condition. We will look into the nursing home and collect evidence to determine if your loved one is being neglected or abused by nursing home staff.
