Elderly individuals in nursing homes deserve compassionate and attentive care. Unfortunately, abuse and neglect are alarmingly common, leading to serious physical and emotional harm. Moore Payne fights for the rights of nursing home residents and their families, ensuring that those responsible for mistreatment are held accountable.

Types of Nursing Home Abuse

• Physical abuse, including bruises, fractures, and restraining injuries.
• Emotional abuse, leading to depression, anxiety, and withdrawal.
• Neglect, resulting in malnutrition, dehydration, bedsores, and infections.
• Financial exploitation, where caregivers steal from or manipulate residents.

Legal Steps for Families

• Reporting abuse to state authorities and legal professionals.
• Filing claims for medical expenses and pain suffered.
