Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect Attorney
Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect Attorney
It can be a very difficult decision to place a parent, spouse or other loved one in a nursing home, adult care home, or assisted living facility. Much time, thought, and research goes into selecting just the right facility that will protect and care for them.
Unfortunately, nursing home abuse and neglect may occur due to factors including inadequate levels of staffing and supervision, lack of training of staff members, and general inattention by the facility.
Nursing home abuse and neglect can take many forms, including:
- Physical abuse, such as hitting, pushing, or restraining a resident
- Emotional abuse, such as verbal abuse, isolation, or intimidation
- Sexual abuse, such as unwanted touching or sexual assault
- Financial abuse, such as stealing a resident’s money or property
- Neglect, such as failing to provide adequate food, water, or medical care
If you suspect that a loved one is a victim of nursing home abuse or neglect, there are several signs to look for, including:
- Unexplained injuries, such as bruises or broken bones
- Changes in behavior, such as depression or withdrawal
- Unsanitary living conditions
- Bedsores or other signs of poor hygiene
- Sudden weight loss or dehydration
If you suspect that a loved one is a victim of nursing home abuse or neglect, there are several steps you should take to protect their safety and legal rights:
Contact the authorities: If you believe that your loved one is in immediate danger, call 911 or the local police department.
Report the abuse or neglect to the nursing home: Contact the nursing home administration to report the abuse or neglect and request that they take immediate action to protect your loved one.
Contact The Zydron Law Firm, P.L.L.C.; We can help you navigate the legal process and ensure that you and your loved one receive fair compensation for your injuries and damages.

In June 2016, I was injured in a car accident. My injury required surgical repair, placement of a plate, screws and several months of physical therapy. Nearly a year after my original injury, I was still experiencing pain and ongoing complications. Mr. Zydron worked tirelessly to understand my situation and helped negotiate fair compensation from the insurance company. I truly appreciate Mr. Zydron’s hard work and couldn’t be more pleased with the outcome.
