Nursing home abuse attorney Baltimore, MD

How can I tell if my loved one is being abused in a care home?

Recognizing nursing home abuse necessitates alertness and attention to warning indicators. Physical signs include unexplained bruises, scrapes, burns, or bedsores. Emotional and behavioral changes, such as withdrawal, anxiety, depression, or fearfulness of staff, can potentially indicate abuse. Neglect might emerge as inadequate hygiene, malnutrition, dehydration, or recurring diseases. Additionally, abrupt changes in financial records, missing personal things, or odd bank withdrawals may suggest financial exploitation.

Pay close attention to how the personnel interacts with your loved one. If they appear evasive, refuse to allow you visit alone, or provide ambiguous explanations for injuries, these may be red flags. 

If you suspect abuse, document everything, notify the nursing home administration, and contact adult protective services if required. Blank Kim Injury Law specializes in nursing home abuse situations and can assist you with investigating, protecting your loved one's rights, and taking legal action.

What should I do if I suspect abuse at a care home? 
 
If you suspect mistreatment in a nursing home, intervene immediately to safeguard your loved one. Begin by documenting any indicators of mistreatment, such as physical injuries, unexpected mood shifts, poor hygiene, or unusual money transactions. Speak privately with your loved one to better comprehend their situation, but keep in mind that they may be scared to talk for fear of vengeance. 
 
Report your concerns to the care home's administration and urge an internal investigation. If the reaction is inadequate or the abuse continues, escalate the situation by alerting local adult protective services, the state's long-term care ombudsman, or law enforcement if an urgent threat exists.
