Elderly Neglect and Abuse Lawyers

The thought of nursing home abuse can be almost incomprehensible to family members. Nursing homes assume a fiduciary relationship (special trust relationship) with residents when they accept financial compensation under a contractual agreement to provide for the care of elderly and disabled residents. Nursing homes do not take on the task of caring for our elderly and disabled loved ones simply because they are benevolent organizations: On the contrary, nursing and rehabilitation facilities are lucrative businesses that, in exchange for compensation, make a promise to provide basic care to seniors unable to provide for their own needs and to ensure a safe environment free from abuse, neglect, physical assaults, and threats.

Families looking for answers about why their loved ones fell victim to abuse or neglect struggle to understand the factors that lead nursing homes to violate this special trust relationship and disregard their responsibility to provide reasonable care and protection to residents. Whether the neglect or abuse is the result of inadvertent or intentional malfeasance, the effects are devastating all the same. While there are many factors that contribute to nursing home abuse, including a focus on profits over quality of care, challenges of caring for seniors by staff with limited training and resources, and staff members who are stressed out or exhausted, the common thread is that these factors are largely due to administrative inadequacies and shortcomings.

What Is Abuse in Nursing Homes?

Nursing home abuse can take several forms, but generally, it is the mistreatment or exploitation of vulnerable seniors by caregivers of the facility. Due to residents of nursing homes being dependent upon the staff for basic needs, these residents are particularly vulnerable to abuse from overworked and undertrained staff members. When your elderly or disabled loved ones are abused or neglected by the people you trusted to care for them and their needs, the feeling of betrayal can be overwhelming. When residents of nursing homes are mistreated, it can be particularly devastating because many of them do not possess the ability to process what is being done to them or properly report it.

Understanding the Most Common Forms of Nursing Home Elder Abuse

There are many types of abuse in nursing homes, but some of the most prevalent examples of what is considered nursing home neglect include:

Physical Abuse

The definition of physical abuse in a nursing home is both the intentional and inappropriate application of physical force against an elderly resident of a nursing home that has the potential to cause pain, injury or even wrongful death. The use of physical abuse against seniors in nursing homes is especially unacceptable because elderly residents frequently are more susceptible to injury. The potential for broken bones or fractures in older adults is much higher, and their recovery time is generally much longer. Elderly physical abuse can vary, ranging from something relatively mild, such as a slap or push, to something far more extreme, like kicking or beating. However, any form that physical abuse takes should not be tolerated, as it can easily lead to significant harm to a nursing home resident.

Some acts of physical abuse that are frequently seen in nursing homes include:

  • Using a hand or object to punch, beat or strike a resident
  • Kicking or slapping
  • Pushing a resident into a wall, object or bed in an attempt to make them move faster
  • Knocking an elderly resident to the ground
  • Unnecessary use of restraints, both chemical and physical
  • Intentional withholding of hygiene, hydration, medication or nutrition needs
  • Pinching or pulling of a resident’s hair
  • Burning the resident

As detestable as this list of acts taking place in a nursing home is, these are real-life instances of physical abuse.

Sexual Abuse

As unimaginable and distasteful as this particular form of nursing home abuse may seem, sexual abuse is a very real occurrence in nursing homes throughout the country. Any non-consensual sexual conduct or interaction is considered nursing home sexual abuse. Staff members at nursing homes have the capability of using their position to exercise dominance, authority, and power over ill or frail residents who lack the ability to consent, making the situation extremely problematic. If you suspect that a loved one is being taken advantage of in this way, contact a nursing home sexual abuse lawyer as soon as possible. Some examples of nursing home sexual abuse include:

  • Unwelcome or inappropriate touching
  • Sexual harassment
  • Sexual assault
  • Fondling
  • Sodomy
  • Sexual coercion
  • Exposing a resident to pornography through force
  • Oral copulation by force
  • Rape

Emotional Abuse

Emotional or mental abuse in a nursing home can be particularly insidious because it is less likely to leave physical signs, which makes it harder to detect. Emotional abuse is never appropriate, and the offensive nature of this form of verbal or psychological mistreatment is exacerbated by the fact that residents of nursing homes are dependent on staff members for their needs.

Like other forms of nursing home abuse, emotional abuse may take a variety of forms:

  • Isolation or Abandonment: This type of abuse may involve segregating the resident so that the senior does not have access to social interaction or participation in activities in the facility. This form of emotional abuse also includes ignoring the resident or refusing to talk to the resident or to answer the resident’s questions.
  • Threats: If the resident observes the inappropriate treatment of another senior, a nurse or other staff member may threaten to cause physical harm or to deprive the resident of physical necessities if the resident discloses the misconduct.
  • Verbal Abuse: The staff member may verbally dress down or humiliate the resident with derogatory comments or insults. This form of emotional abuse may also include verbal threats when the resident soils their sheets or otherwise engages in conduct that they cannot control.
  • Emotional Manipulation: Because nursing home residents have a high level of dependency on staff members, threats and hostility may undermine the resident’s self-esteem and make the resident leery about asking for something to drink or a snack. These fears increase the risk of the resident suffering from malnutrition or dehydration.

What Does Emotional or Mental Abuse in Nursing Homes Do to the Brain?

Emotional abuse can cause the brain to release cortisol, which is a stress hormone. Too much cortisol can cause issues such as depression, avoidance of others, and memory impairment.

Financial Abuse

Financial exploitation or abuse involves other residents, staff, visitors or administrators at the nursing home taking or using the property, money or credit of a resident for an unapproved use or to defraud the resident. Financial exploitation is defined as the wrongful misappropriation of a person’s finances or assets for another’s benefit. A resident’s finances or property may be misused because the senior is incapacitated and unable to give lawful consent or the senior is exposed to intimidation, manipulation or deceit. Some of the more typical forms of nursing home financial abuse include:

  • Electronic transfers, online credit card transactions or electronic debits from a senior’s account
  • Forging the check of a resident
  • Stealing property or money from a senior
  • Tricking a resident into executing a will, trust or contract for financial gain
  • Engaging in self-dealing transactions with an elderly resident
  • Accessing the bank accounts of a senior
  • Using the credit history or identity of the resident for financial advantage
  • Billing the resident for service not provided

Understanding the Massive Scope of the Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect Epidemic

Although many elderly residents and families pay thousands of dollars a month for around-the-clock professional care, massive verdicts against nursing homes across the United States appear routinely in media reports. Tragic accounts of physical abuse, sexual assault, violence, and chronic neglect that result in physical injury, emotional distress, dangerous falls, starvation, and declining health are far too common. The magnitude of nursing home abuse becomes clear when considering some startling statistics from the National Center on Elder Abuse:

  • One out of every ten elderly Americans become the victims of abuse or neglect.
  • Approximately four in ten nursing homes have been determined to have violated elder abuse laws.
  • Over the course of a year, 5.9 million seniors will become victims of elder abuse.
  • Ninety percent of nursing homes are insufficiently staffed to meet minimum standards.

This data is reinforced by a study prepared by the Special Investigations Division of the House Government Reform Committee:

  • One in three nursing homes was cited for abuse of elderly residents during the two-year period of the investigation.
  • During this same period, 5,233 nursing homes were cited for more than 9,000 instances of resident abuse.
  • More than 1,600 of these incidents of abuse resulted in actual harm, including “immediate jeopardy of death or serious injury.”

Scope of Under-Reporting of Nursing Home Abuse

As incomprehensible as nursing home abuse may seem, these horrific acts are far more pervasive than most people would imagine. Recent research indicates that almost 45 percent of nursing home residents have experienced a form of abuse, while almost half believe that they have been treated in a rough manner by staff. Despite the frequency with which nursing home abuse occurs, the magnitude of the problem is far greater than this data indicates because many acts of nursing home abuse go unreported.

A study by the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services characterized the problem this way: “Studies of the processes states use to detect, investigate, resolve, and prevent elder mistreatment in nursing homes, assisted living facilities, and board and care homes are deeply flawed. As a result, estimates of elder abuse and neglect are lower than the actual prevalence, and the process must be strengthened to protect residents.”

While it is impossible to know the extent of the underreporting problem, there are reasons to believe that it is widespread. Staff members and nursing homes have little incentive to report violations because of exposure to fines, civil liability, and criminal penalties. Many seniors also are hesitant or unable to report nursing home abuse. Obstacles to accurate reporting include a variety of factors, such as:

  • Fear of reprisals
  • Cognitive limitations in comprehending abuse
  • Limited communication ability
  • Inadequate frequency and thoroughness of inspections by state agencies
  • Coverups in nursing homes to avoid criminal and civil liability

Some sense of the scope of the inaccuracy associated with reporting of elder abuse in nursing homes is provided by a study that focused on New York nursing homes. The study revealed that for every incident of nursing home abuse that was reported, 24 other incidents of abuse went unreported. When limited to cases of neglect, the underreporting was even more extensive, with only one in 57 incidents being reported.

Nursing Home Caregivers Acknowledge Mistreatment of Elderly Residents

What many people with aging parents or other elderly loved ones in nursing homes might be surprised to learn is that nursing home abuse is so prevalent that even staff members acknowledge that it is a common occurrence. A nursing home survey found that half of the staff members surveyed indicated that they had mistreated elderly residents during the previous 12-month period, either through some form of intentional abuse or inadvertent neglect. Another survey of certified nursing assistants (CNAs) found that 17 percent admitted that they had pushed, shoved or grabbed a nursing home resident. Almost a third of the CNAs in this survey indicated that they had insulted a resident or assailed them with profanities.

A review of nursing home citations for abuse and neglect violations showed that one in three nursing homes received a formal citation for practices that amount to abuse, including gross neglect. This abuse can take many forms, but the frequencies with which the most common forms of abuse occur break down as indicated below:

Physical abuse 29 percent
Abuse by another resident (inadequate supervision) 29 percent
Psychological abuse 21 percent
Gross neglect 14 percent
Financial exploitation 7 percent
Sexual abuse 7 percent

Law Governing Nursing Home Care of Residents

Residents in nursing home facilities are protected by a variety of state and federal laws and regulations. These provisions provide a safeguard against abuse and neglect while protecting the security and privacy of seniors in these facilities. Because of rising reports of nursing home mistreatment of residents, Congress passed legislation in 1987 that required nursing homes to abide by specific mandates if they accepted Medicare or Medicaid for residents.

The Omnibus Budget Reconciliation Act (OBRA) of 1987 (Nursing Home Reform Act) defines specific standards of care for nursing homes. The federal statute directs these facilities to “provide services and activities to attain or maintain the highest practicable physical, mental, and psychological well-being of each resident in accordance with a written plan of care.” If a long-term care facility participates in Medicare/Medicaid, the facility must comply with applicable federal regulations.

When a resident in a nursing home facility is injured because of the negligence of staff, management or ownership, the injured resident might be entitled to compensation. Long-term care facilities also can be liable for substandard care, abuse or other violations of federal law that result in harm to residents. Some states impose even more stringent regulations for nursing homes that accept Medicare/Medicaid.

What Are the Causes of Nursing Home Abuse and Neglect?

Tragically, neglect and abuse in nursing homes across the United States cause preventable debilitating illnesses, serious injuries, and wrongful deaths. Most forms of mistreatment in long-term care facilities are rooted in economics. The shift to corporate-owned nursing homes has resulted in large corporate facilities operated by entities and individuals with limited experience in the health-care sector of the economy. This lack of experience and corporate ownership leads to a focus on cutting operating costs to maximize profits. The factors that contribute to nursing home abuse and neglect include:

  • Low Pay: Many facilities pay caregivers only slightly more than minimum wage. Given the physical and emotional toll on nursing home care providers, the low pay levels have created a significant shortage of qualified caregivers. The average pay for caregivers is $12 per hour, whereas the average rate for all occupations is $17 per hour, according to the U.S. Department of Labor. Because of changing demographics in the United States as Baby Boomers retire, nursing home industry experts anticipate increasing labor shortages.
  • Inadequate Staffing: Nursing homes motivated to maximize profits look to cut costs. A common strategy to reduce operating expenses involves operation with a “skeleton staff.” Inspections and studies have revealed that some nursing homes place only one caregiver per 30 residents on a shift. When facilities attempt to run with this level of chronic understaffing, residents’ basic needs are threatened, such as hydration, nutrition, medical care, and hygiene.
  • Failure to Provide Sufficient Training/Supervision: Nursing homes often hire unqualified staff, then exacerbate the problem by offering almost no training. While federal law requires nursing homes receiving Medicaid/Medicare to adopt and implement individual care plans, compliance often is thwarted because the staff lacks the experience and knowledge to properly implement such plans. Given that this lack of training frequently will be accompanied by almost no supervision, the high rate of abuse and neglect in long-term care facilities is predictable.
  • Failure to Perform Adequate Background Checks: In the wake of a flood of massive judgments and settlements against large nursing home chains for systemic abuse and neglect, some states have implemented requirements to conduct background checks. However, the decision to conduct screenings, as well as the extent of those investigations, is left up to individual facilities in many states. More than 90 percent of nursing home facilities included in a U.S. Department of Health and Human Services study had a caregiver on staff with a criminal record. The stress stemming from long hours, low pay, and work that is physically and emotionally demanding combined with workers with criminal records creates an environment ripe for abuse.

Signs Your Elderly Loved One Is a Nursing Home Abuse Victim

If you observe signs of nursing home abuse when visiting your elderly loved one, such as loss of weight, infections, bedsores, lack of hygiene or cleanliness, sudden changes in mood or temperament or similar indications, you should speak to your loved one privately to determine if there are abuse or neglect issues. If you cannot tell for sure if abuse is occurring or your elderly family member’s ability to understand or communicate is impacted by a medical condition, you should consider taking your loved one to a physician, notifying the police, and contacting a nursing home negligence attorney to discuss potentially filing charges over the neglect or abuse.

Covid-19 Nursing Home FAQ

How Can Public Health Agencies Prioritize COVID-19 Testing Across Nursing Homes?

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), if there are shortages of testing capacity, “Priority facilities may include those with confirmed cases, those in counties with high incidence, those with the ability to cohort residents who are found to be positive, larger facilities, and facilities with more patients with recent health-care exposures (e.g., recent hospitalization or outpatient dialysis). If a facility identifies additional cases through facility-wide testing, then that facility should be prioritized for repeat testing of negative residents.”

What Are the CDC Recommendations for Residents Who Show COVID-19 Symptoms?

If a resident is showing symptoms of COVID-19, the CDC recommends that the resident be moved to a single room until testing can confirm whether or not they are infected. While waiting for the test results to come back, the resident should wear a face mask to ensure that they do not potentially spread the illness to others.

How Should the Spread of COVID-19 Be Prevented in Nursing Homes?

Residents of nursing homes should self-isolate as much as possible. Those who begin to show symptoms should also have a separate bathroom. Bedrooms and bathrooms of residents showing symptoms should be cleaned on an as-needed basis.

Yes, but anyone showing COVID-19 symptoms should not be permitted to enter. Furthermore, all visitors must wear a face mask at all times and limit their visit to the room of the resident they’re visiting.
