What You Need to Know About Nursing Home Negligence

The Dangers of Nursing Home Negligence

When you place a loved one in a nursing home, you trust that they will receive the care and attention they need. Unfortunately, not all nursing homes live up to these expectations. Nursing home negligence can lead to serious injuries or even death, and it's essential to hold the facility accountable.

Types of Nursing Home Negligence

There are many different types of nursing home negligence, including:

1. Medical Negligence

Medical negligence can include medication errors, misdiagnosis, failure to treat an illness or injury, and more. This type of negligence can cause harm to residents who require specific medications or medical treatments to manage their health conditions.

2. Physical Negligence

Physical negligence can involve neglecting a resident's basic needs, such as food, water, and hygiene, or causing physical harm through restraint, assault, or abuse. This type of negligence can lead to serious injuries such as bruises, fractures, bedsores, malnutrition, dehydration, and even death.

3. Emotional Negligence

Emotional negligence can include isolation, humiliation, verbal abuse, or neglecting a resident's emotional needs. Emotional neglect can have severe consequences for residents, including depression, anxiety, withdrawal, and other psychological conditions.

4. Financial Negligence

Financial negligence can include theft, fraud, or other financial exploitation of a nursing home resident's assets. This type of negligence can cause serious financial harm to elderly residents who may be unable to protect their assets.

5. Environmental Negligence

Environmental negligence can include failing to maintain safe and clean living conditions in the nursing home, such as keeping the premises clean, free from pests and vermin, and properly maintained. This type of negligence can lead to residents contracting infections, illnesses, and other serious health problems.
