Florida Nursing Home Abuse Attorney
When an elderly individual is no longer able to care for themselves physically or mentally, then they are generally admitted into nursing homes that will provide care and provision for them on a daily basis. While there are many nursing homes that provide excellent care and provision, these are generally understaffed. There are some nursing homes that employ very uncaring nurses who will use violence and aggression in order to get patients to comply with their wishes.
Nursing home abuse is sadly a rather common occurrence; the abuse that elderly people endure may entail many different things including:
- Verbal abuse
- Physical abuse
- Hitting
- Biting
- Scratching
- Neglect
- Not washing
- Not feeding or providing other sustenance
- Sexual abuse
