Signs Of Nursing Home Abuse

Common nursing home abuse injuries result from:

  • Physical abuse, including assault or neglect that leads to anything from bruising, to broken bones or bedsores
  • Emotional abuse, including harassment, threats or isolation
  • Sexual abuse by the staff or other residents that leads to serious physical and emotional trauma

Your loved one may not be aware that they are experiencing abuse. They may also not tell anyone about it due to feelings of shame or embarrassment. That is why it is important to be on alert for signs of nursing home abuse, which often include:

  • Unexplained injuries
  • Dehydration or weight loss
  • Changes in your loved one’s physical appearance
  • Changes in your loved one’s attitude
  • Agitation or withdrawal
  • Refusal of food or medications
  • Unsanitary conditions in the facility

If you suspect your loved one may be a victim of nursing home abuse, it is important to report it and hold nursing homes accountable for the damage. You and many others trust these places to take care of your loved ones. Neglecting their duties to your trust is unacceptable.
