At Hyde Trial Tribe, we believe that nursing home residents deserve to be treated with respect and dignity. When you entrust the care of your loved one to a nursing home facility, you expect them to receive compassionate care and attention. Unfortunately, not all nursing homes provide the care that their residents deserve. If you suspect that your loved one is being abused or neglected in a nursing home, our team is here to help.

Types of Nursing Home Abuse

Nursing home abuse can take many forms, including:

• Physical abuse: This can include hitting, pushing, or restraining residents, as well as overmedicating them.
• Emotional abuse: This can include yelling, insulting, or belittling residents, as well as isolating them from friends and family.
• Sexual abuse: This can include any unwanted sexual contact or behavior.
• Neglect: This can include failing to provide residents with adequate food, water, or medication, as well as failing to assist with basic hygiene and medical needs.
• Financial abuse: This can include stealing from residents or coercing them into signing financial documents.

If you suspect that your loved one is being subjected to any of the above, it’s crucial to take action right away.

Compensation for Nursing Home Abuse Cases

If your loved one has been the victim of nursing home abuse, they may be entitled to compensation for the damages they have suffered. This can include:

• Medical expenses: This can include costs related to physical injuries, as well as mental health care.
• Pain and suffering: This can include compensation for the emotional and psychological trauma that your loved one has experienced.
• Loss of enjoyment of life: If your loved one’s quality of life has been negatively impacted by the abuse, they may be entitled to compensation for the loss of enjoyment of life.
• Punitive damages: In cases of particularly egregious abuse, the court may award punitive damages to punish the nursing home and deter similar conduct in the future.
