Nursing Home Abuse

Ohio Elder Abuse

When you entrust an elder family member to a nursing home, it is the responsibility and duty of the staff and administration to provide a healthy, attentive and safe environment. Unfortunately for many residents, some elder care facilities fail to properly monitor patient care, medical conditions or provide adequate staff or resources and effective management. A case of elder abuse or nursing home neglect can lead to serious and fatal injury to loved ones.
