Nursing home abuse is a serious crime that can quickly worsen and even turn deadly if not stopped. There are many avenues through which you can report nursing home abuse. These include local, state, and national agencies.

By reporting suspected abuse, you can open an investigation into an older person’s well-being. You may even be able to hold nursing facilities legally accountable if they harmed your loved one.


Our Vision: A Future WITHOUT Senior Abuse
Every year, millions of families turn to nursing homes to provide proper care for their parents or grandparents.
These families put their trust in the staff of these facilities to keep their loved one as happy and healthy as possible.

Unfortunately, some facilities betray this trust.

Every year, hundreds of reports from the world’s top news organizations
reveal awful accounts of elder neglect and abuse in nursing homes.

Our site exposes how seniors can be abused in nursing homes and why nursing homes are often responsible.
​We break down the common issues to help you determine if someone you love is being abused.

Everything You Need to Know About
​Nursing Home Abuse

Picture
Picture

Nursing home abuse is a horrifying reality happening in our communities and affecting our senior citizens.
When we place our elder loved ones in a nursing home, we expect staff members to treat them with dignity and respect.
Unfortunately, that's not always the case.
With over 15,000 nursing homes housing 1.7 million licensed beds across the United States as of 2016 and current residents totaling upwards of 1.3 million as of 2015, nursing homes and staff need to be held accountable for how they care for our older generations.
​Therefore, it's crucial to understand what nursing home abuse is, the different types of abuse, signs of abuse, and how to prevent it.
