Elder Abuse & Neglect
Elder abuse and neglect can take on many forms. It can range from a resident right violation such as the failure to knock on a resident’s door before opening it or the failure to respond to a call button in a timely manner to the failure to supervise a resident, which results in falls, the failure to provide proper nutrition and hydration, the failure to manage medications and the failure to obtain emergency medical attention for a resident in need.
Regardless of the type of abuse or neglect, residents have the right under state and federal law to file civil claims to recover for the harms they have experienced.
