Frequently Asked Questions
What are the signs of nursing home abuse or neglect?
Signs of nursing home abuse or neglect include unexplained injuries like bruises, cuts, or broken bones, bedsores (pressure ulcers) especially in advanced stages, sudden weight loss or dehydration, poor hygiene (unwashed hair, dirty clothes, unchanged diapers), emotional changes like withdrawal, fear, or depression, unsanitary living conditions, and medication errors. If you notice these signs, document them with photos, report to the facility administrator, and contact an attorney.
Can I sue a nursing home for my loved one's injuries?
Yes, you can sue a nursing home for injuries caused by their negligence or abuse. Common claims include failure to prevent falls, failure to prevent bedsores, medication errors, inadequate supervision, physical or sexual abuse by staff, and wrongful death. Nursing homes have a legal duty to provide adequate care. If they fail to meet this duty and your loved one is harmed, you may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, pain and suffering, and punitive damages in cases of egregious conduct.
Where do I report nursing home abuse in Florida?
In Florida, report nursing home abuse to the Florida Department of Children and Families Adult Protective Services at 1-800-962-2873 (available 24/7), and to the Florida Agency for Health Care Administration (AHCA) at 1-888-419-3456. If there's immediate danger, call 911. You should also document all evidence, take photos of injuries or conditions, and consult with an elder abuse attorney who can help protect your loved one and pursue legal action.
