When most people think about nursing home abuse, they imagine physical injuries or medical neglect. While those issues are serious, there is another type of abuse that is just as harmful yet far less visible. Emotional abuse in nursing homes is a widespread problem that often leaves no physical scars but causes lasting pain for residents and their families.

Families deserve to understand how this abuse happens, how to recognize it, and what steps can be taken to protect their loved ones.
Medication is meant to heal, not harm. Yet in nursing homes across the country, medication errors happen far too often.
