What is Nursing Home Negligence?

As opposed to nursing home abuse, which typically involves intentional misconduct and physical abuse, negligence in a nursing home involves a failure to provide a proper level of care. This may result in inadequate nutrition causing malnutrition, poor medical treatment, unclean living quarters, dehydration, bedsores, and a myriad of other problems, all stemming from a facility or caregiver not providing the level of care that an elderly resident or patient deserves. Nursing home negligence may lead to serious injury or even the  wrongful death of an elderly patient.
