Identifying Nursing Home Abuse in Sacramento

Recognizing the Signs of Elder Mistreatment

Part of what makes nursing home abuse and neglect so alarming is that it commonly occurs to victims who are already in a frail state of health. This type of treatment can have devastating and even long-term effects for the victims who, in many case, cannot fend for themselves.

Typical types of nursing home injuries include:

• Bedsores (or "pressure ulcers")
• Dehydration
• Malnutrition
• Medication errors
• Falling/transportation injuries
• Injuries resulting from staff mishandling
• Emotional abuse
• Sexual abuse

In many cases, the discovery of these kinds of injuries or abuse calls for the immediate relocation of the resident while families work with legal counsel on filing suit. At The Law Office of Michael R. Loewen, our Sacramento nursing home abuse lawyer can help you with the transition, ensure that your loved one receives the care they need at a proper facility, and tirelessly work to recover the compensation your family deserves for his inexcusable behavior.
