Detecting Abuse or Neglect

Nursing home abuse may consist of the intentional infliction of physical or psychological injury on a nursing home patient by a caregiver. Neglect, on the other hand, is the failure to meet the daily needs of a senior citizen entrusted to your care. Whether a caregiver is suspected of abuse, neglect, or both, nursing home abuse has reached epidemic levels in the United States. Recently, there has been increased recognition that elderly and dependent adults are subject to a high risk of abuse, neglect, and abandonment.
