Physical, Mental, Sexual Abuse In NJ-FL Nursing Homes
Nursing home abuse
in Florida and New Jersey is a very sad fact of senior life in too many
nursing homes. Many states have both criminal and civil laws, in
addition to federal laws and regulations, that are designed to protect
residents from such elder abuse.
Senior citizen abuse in nursing
homes can lead to serious injury or even death if not stopped. Lawyers
and attorneys in our NJ-FL law firm know that abuse may consist of:
-
physical abuse such as hitting
or kicking
-
the unauthorized use of physical
restraints
-
emotional or mental abuse
leading to depression
-
ignoring the residents basic needs, a
form of abuse
-
sexual abuse either by staff,
other residents or strangers
No person, especially an otherwise
helpless nursing home resident should be subject to abuse injuries,
either physical, mental, or sexual. Our lawyer-attorney will help fight
for the rights of you or a loved one who has been abused while a
resident in a nursing home or senior care facility.
Physical abuse and sexual abuse in
the nursing home setting can lead to mental injury and depression, and
can exacerbate other illness or disease courses, making recovery less
likely or impossible. When we trust nursing homes to care for our loved
ones, we have a right to expect similar care as a family member could
provide.

If you or a loved one fell or was
injured in a Florida-New Jersey nursing home, as victims of
physical, mental or sexual abuse injury or death, our
attorneys and lawyers may be able to get
compensation for serious and permanent injuries. For legal assistance, information,
