The Absence of Care
Nursing homes are charged with the duty of providing residents the care necessary to maintain the resident’s physical, mental and psycho social well being. Naturally as a resident ages these three health components will deteriorate. This is inevitable. However, a nursing home facility, by law, must not deprive a resident of the care necessary to attain their optimum health. If the nursing home does, it may be neglect.
