Nursing home abuse is a terrible violation of trust where patients in the most need of help are abused or neglected by the people who were entrusted with caring for them. It can be hard to tell when a loved one has been a victim of nursing home abuse, but signs can include:

• Bedsores;
• unexplained falls;
• failure to use bedrails;
• sudden weight loss or problems with dehydration;
• changes in emotional state or mental functioning;
• conflicting stories from staff members about how or why a loved one was injured.
