Signs of Nursing Home Abuse, Neglect,
and Negligence
We all want to care for our loved ones,
but sometimes we don't know what to look
for. Here are some of the most common signs
and symptoms to be on the lookout for in
elderly nursing residents:
- Bedsores (decubitus ulcers),
pressure ulcers
- Poor Hygiene
- Malnutrition and dehydration
- Falls, bruises, infections, and
other unexplained injuries
- Fearfulness and depression
- Patient-on-patient altercations
- Unexplained death
If you suspect abuse or neglect, due not
hesitate to act. Contact your local police
or sheriff's departments, the
Alabama Public Health Department at
1-800-356-9596, or the Alabama Department of
Senior Services. If you feel you need legal
representation, please contact Gorham &
Associates today.
