(USGovernment-News.Com, October 02, 2012 ) SAVANNAH, GA – Bed sores are commonly associated with nursing home abuse in Georgia. While these types of wounds are very telling signs of elderly abuse, some of the symptoms associated with nursing home abuse are much less obvious. When trusting a nursing home, residents expect to be taken care of properly, with the utmost respect and carefulness. On the contrary, a terrifying number of Georgia nursing homes have reported abuse over the last several years. For more information, please visit: http://www.thejusticelawyer.com/.
Georgia nursing homes are required to uphold a certain level of cleanliness, care, and attentiveness to each and every resident living in their home. Unfortunately, many family members and loved ones of an elder do not discover abuse or neglect until it is too late. When it comes to identifying abuse, earlier negligence discovery is essential in reducing the amount of pain and suffering endured by the elderly.
Some of the most common, yet less obvious signs of nursing home abuse include: odd behaviors uncharacteristic of the elderly resident, a sudden change in finances, becoming unresponsive, displaying emotional or physical withdrawals, vanishing of personal things, and/or sudden unresponsiveness. While predicting these terrible events is difficult, Georgia nursing home litigation can help the elderly to receive the treatment that they deserve.
