“ Integrity, Honesty, Experience.

Today, over 1.5 million elderly and dependent adults live in nursing homes throughout the U.S. Although many nursing homes are reputable organizations that provide proper care for their residents, a growing number have begun to put their profits before quality care. As a result, nursing home abuse has developed into a widespread problem.

 

The nursing homes involved in abuse often seek to increase their profits by decreasing the quality of care they offer their residents. This is most often reflected in a reduced number of well-trained staff members who are already overworked and underpaid. This can lead to often rude and abusive behavior by the staff members.

Unfortunately, most residents in nursing homes are dependent on the staff for most or all their needs such as food, water, medicine, toileting, grooming, stimulation and turning - almost all their daily care.

The combination of poorly-trained and understaffed staff members, and vulnerably dependent residents, can lead to abuses such as: starvation, dehydration, over-medication, painful pressure sores, and isolation.
