Common Types of Nursing Home Abuse
Nursing home abuse is often subtle. Representatives of the care facility rarely admit what happened.
Some common types of nursing home abuse are:
- Assault and battery
- Inadequate personal care including regular bathing
- A fall that occurs because of a lack of employee training, insufficient guard railings, or failing to provide needed walkers and wheelchairs
- Sexual abuse
- Verbal abuse, belittlement, emotional manipulation
- Neglect, refusing to allow a resident to socialize, leaving them in isolation
- Poor nutrition, starvation, food sanitation problems
- Bed sores that develop from a lack of movement
- Failing to provide adequate medical care
- Financial exploitation, theft
- Material exploitation, forcing the resident to work or perform certain tasks
There are many ways that nursing home abuse can occur. Our lawyers can evaluate your loved one’s situation and investigate further. If abuse has occurred, we can help you respond. The compensation that you receive may cover financial expenses, mental injury, physical pain and emotional anguish.
Legal Representation and Compassionate Help
What does a nursing home abuse lawyer do?
A nursing home abuse lawyer represents a victim to claim compensation. The victim must bring a legal claim, prove that the abuse happened and show what damages they have. A nursing home abuse lawyer represents their client, handling all the steps to bring a claim on their behalf. They help the person they represent to evaluate the case and then they pursue it as the victim’s representative.

Our goal is to get justice. Of course, no amount of compensation can undo the harm that has occurred. It is our goal to pursue a judgment or settlement that is a fair representation of what the victim has suffered. A victim of abuse in a care facility often suffers terribly. Their physical suffering and emotional anguish should be recognized in the compensation that they receive.
