Lancaster and Palmdale Nursing Home Neglect and Abuse

At times, we may be entirely unaware that a loved one is currently the victim of elder abuse or neglect in a Lancaster or Palmdale nursing home. We may try to visit as often as possible, but even at our best we may only visit a few times a week, and these visits to the nursing home may be brief. Our loved one may feel embarrassed or unsafe about talking about mistreatment, abuse, or neglect. This is why it is so important to look further into any situation that you think may indicate nursing home abuse.

For example, you may notice that your elderly loved one shows fear around a particular caregiver, is injured often, is losing weight or is generally unclean. Making more frequent visits, showing up unexpected and talking to your loved ones are all actions you can take to look further into this situation. If you suspect that nursing home abuse or neglect is occurring, an attorney can help.
