Types of Nursing Home Abuse

Harrisonburg Nursing Home Abuse Lawyers

Serving Elders & Families throughout Virginia

As your loved ones age, you may be faced with the difficult decision to employ the care of a professional. Although this is an emotionally trying decision, a nursing home may be the best option for yourself and your older family members as they require more specialized attention.

When making the choice to move an elderly person into a nursing home, we expect the caregivers in the home will be able to provide attentive and informed care. While many nursing homes do provide the dedicated assistance we want for our family members, there are others that do not offer the care their patients need and mistreat the elderly to the point of abuse and neglect.

Among the most common types of nursing home abuse are:

Negligence
Slip and Falls
Wrongful death
Malnutrition
Overdose
Bedsores
Assault
Sepsis
Dehydration
Aspiration pneumonia

If you or someone you know has suffered from any of these types of abuse in their care facility, Obenshain Law Group can help. Our Harrisonburg nursing home abuse attorneys can advocate for your loved ones and support your family through the legal process.
