Nursing home neglect is when residents don’t get the care they need, as required by law. This can cause harm, like infections from poor hygiene or not getting the right medication. It’s a serious issue that affects people emotionally and physically.
Nursing home neglect is defined in federal regulations as “the failure of the facility, its employees or service providers to provide goods and services to a resident that are necessary to avoid physical harm, pain, mental anguish, or emotional distress.” 42 CFR §483.5.
Nursing home abuse is “the willful infliction of injury, unreasonable confinement, intimidation, or punishment with resulting physical harm, pain or mental anguish,” and includes “the deprivation by an individual, including a caretaker, of goods or services that are necessary to attain or maintain physical, mental, and psychosocial well-being.” 42 CFR §483.5.
Nursing home neglect is a form of substandard care that harms the resident. It is more about a breach of duty. But, like abuse, neglect affects victims on emotional and physical levels. For example, a resident may not be properly bathed or cared for in regards to hygiene. In some cases, this leads to infections and sores. Another example is a nursing home failing to adhere to a resident’s diet restrictions or providing them with proper medication. Contact us to see how we can help.
Abuse is preventable. Especially in a place designed to care for people who depend on it. But sadly, this is not always the case. No one ever wants to find that their friend, parent, or grandparent was the victim of nursing home abuse. If you suspect abuse, reach out.
Primarily, make sure your loved one is safe and will not be harmed any further. Notify the nursing home’s administration and find out what the protocol is when abuse is reported. This way you can follow up and make sure that they are following through.
Call the police. Remember, this is a crime and your loved one is a victim.
You may also report the nursing home to the agency that monitors, regulates, and fines nursing homes.
Ultimately, if you want to hold the nursing home accountable, it will be important to contact a knowledgeable nursing home abuse attorney.
We advance the costs of the investigation and lawsuit. We only get paid from the money we collect in a settlement of verdict: there is never a bill to you.
By taking on all the risk, you can be sure we are only going to take on cases Nursing Home Injury Lawyers believe in fully.
The simple answer is yes. Abuse or neglect in a nursing home can have criminal and civil legal consequences. They can often occur simultaneously. Contact us today.
There are specific steps that you should take if you suspect your loved one is being abused or neglected in a nursing home.
First, it is important to make sure your loved one is safe. Contact your local law enforcement if you feel that there is something criminal going on,
Next, it is important to obtain documentation of what is making you suspect abuse or neglect. Take photographs, obtain statements, and make sure to record details like dates and times.
Lastly, report the abuse or neglect suspicions to administrators. Find out what the policy is for investigating such claims. Check in to make sure that they are following protocol.
Ask to be kept informed as to what is happening. Document, document, document. This will help us with your case. Send us a message to see how we can help.
