Often, families reluctantly have to place their loved ones in Nursing Homes or Assisted Living Facilities (ALFs), in order to assure medical attention and every-day assistance that they are not able to provide for themselves. They expect, and are certainly entitled to, top quality care.
Unfortunately, there are situations where residents of these facilities are not treated properly. Many become injured, or fall into poor health, due to neglect or intentional abuse. Examples include individuals who are not well fed, not given access to their doctors, not bathed frequently, not turned or moved to avoid bedsores or ulcers, and, not given the dignity and human rights they deserve.
Florida has laws in place to ensure that the care, dignity and rights of Nursing Home and Assisted Living Facility residents are protected. Nevertheless, it has been reported that many residents have become helpless victims of Neglect & Abuse; and, the problem is on the rise. If you think your loved one has been mistreated, you can do something about it!
