Nursing Home Litigation
Nursing home abuse occurs when the resident is physically abused, raped or sexually assaulted, over-sedated, or subjected to verbal and/or emotional abuse in nursing homes. Dependent individuals, often elderly adults, may reside in nursing homes and depend upon the nursing home staff for their care and well-being. Abuse in nursing homes can be hard to detect, since many nursing home residents have trouble communicating and may have sporadic family support.
