Physical or mental abuse and neglect of our elderly is a crime that many times goes by unnoticed. Many of these victims are unlikely to report nursing home abuse fearing it will result in further neglect. While this abuse isn't always reported, it is a recurrent problem with often deadly results. When the trained professionals that you trust with your elder parents inflict this abuse, you have the right to demand answers. Those who violate their duty to take professional care of our elderly should be punished severely.
