Nursing Home Neglect/Abuse Cases

Elderly or dependent adults depend upon staff for their care and well-being. Burns and Harris knows that abuse in nursing homes can be hard to detect since residents often have trouble communicating.  If you suspect that someone you love is a victim of neglect or abuse, we urge you not to delay getting help.

Nursing home neglect/abuse occurs when a resident is neglected, physically abused, sexually assaulted, over-sedated, verbally, or emotionally abused in a nursing home, assisted living facility, hospice, or other elder care provider.  Malnutrition, dehydration, over-medication, use of restraints that cause injury, bedsores, decubitus ulcers, and fractures may be the outcome.  Victims may suffer psychological, physical, and emotional injury.
