Nursing Home Neglect
Nursing homes, home health care providers, assisted living environments and other elder care facilities are legally required to provide a certain level of care and protection for residents. However, most of these facilities bring in as many residents as possible in an effort to increase their profit margins, but they lack the staff and other resources to adequately care for their residents. The risk of inadequate care only increases for residents with Alzheimer’s or other conditions that require highly specialized care.
There are many examples of nursing home neglect, including:
- Falls
- Bedsores
- Malnutrition
- Dehydration
- Illnesses
- Lack of proper hygiene
