Pennsylvania Nursing Home Abuse Attorneys:

Nursing home abuse and elder neglect can take many forms. Although federal and state laws generally require that nursing homes develop a responsible plan of care and employ enough staff to provide quality care in all areas of the care plan, they often fall short.  As a result, residents are not taken care of the way they should be and unfortunately, some elderly are still abused in hospitals and skilled nursing facilities.

Nursing home abuse and elder neglect can fall into the categories of:

• mental / emotional abuse (for example, depression, withdrawal, behavioral change, disorientation, confusion)
• physical abuse (such as wounds, burns, bruises, welts, broken bones, inexplicable weight loss, dehydration, unexplained injuries)
• financial abuse (e.g., stolen money or property) Most states define neglect in a nursing home setting as the failure to provide residents with services that are essential to health and safety, such as sufficient food, shelter, clothing, supervision, and medical care.
