Stop the Abuse Cycle in Nursing Homes: Report Abuse to Authorities

If you feel the nursing home administrator would work on your behalf instead of protecting their own legal and monetary interests, a personal meeting with an administrator can help you to clear up any issues and make sure that the administration is aware of abusive staff members. If you fear retaliation against your loved one and want to stop the abuse in its tracks, you can report abuse to a state agency of the nursing home is a state facility.
