Common Types of Nursing Home Abuse in Los Angeles

Nursing home abuse can take many forms. Our nursing home abuse attorneys in Los Angeles have seen it all—and we know how to respond.

Types of elder abuse we handle include:

  • Physical abuse – hitting, pushing, or using restraints, sometimes leading to spinal cord injuries or other long-term harm

  • Emotional abuse – verbal threats, humiliation, or isolation

  • Sexual abuse – any non-consensual sexual contact or coercion

  • Financial abuse – unauthorized use of a senior’s funds or property

  • Neglect – failure to provide food, hygiene, medication, or medical care, which may result in catastrophic personal injuries

Facilities often claim these are isolated incidents or deny responsibility altogether. We hold them accountable.
