Elder Abuse & Neglect in Missouri
Medical malpractice can also occur in assisted living homes where your loved one is residing. The abuse can take place in a variety of forms, such as physical abuse, emotional abuse, solitary confinement, neglect, harassment, lack of supervision, and financial exploitation. Due to their older age, our elders are in a vulnerable position for abuse from those who have been entrusted to care for them. Furthermore, many elders are unable to report the abuse, making it especially important for family members to keep a close eye on the well-being of their loved ones.
