When Fractures Happen in Nursing Homes
Sometimes fractures that happen in nursing homes are blamed on mere accidents when they are really the result of elderly abuse and neglect. They happen when residents are left unattended, and when they become the victims of repetitive falls because they are unsupervised. Fractures also happen when elderly residents are left in a weakened condition due to infection, malnutrition or dehydration. And, sadly, they are also signs that frustrated and negligently hired staff are subjecting residents to elderly abuse.
Fractures and other bone injuries can take many forms. Each form is serious, sometimes requiring intensive surgery and exposing residents to the possibility of life-threatening infection:
- Hip fracture
- Skull fracture / traumatic head injury
- Knee injury
- Injuries requiring orthopedic surgery
- Wrongful death
