Are You or a Loved One the Victim of Nursing Home Abuse?

It is a type of abuse that is also known as psychological abuse that occurs when a caregiver is threatening, belittling, insulting, intimidating, humiliating and/or controlling with an elderly resident. It is usually caused by the usage of words and/or verbal threats that inflict severe emotional pain or distress within the victim.
