Boca Raton, Ft. Lauderdale, West Palm Beach
Nursing home abuse comes in many different forms. A caregiver does not have to physically or mentally harm the individual for it to be considered abuse. It is also possible for the caregiver to abuse the senior or patient by failing to provide the necessary and proper care.
