Nursing Home Abuse

Nursing Home Abuse Center (NHAC) is an information and advocacy resource focused on protecting older adults from abuse and neglect in nursing homes, senior living facilities, and assisted living facilities. Founded on principles of restoring dignity to vulnerable seniors, the organization helps families understand the warning signs and forms of mistreatment and explore ways to respond. Its educational materials cover physical, sexual, emotional, and financial abuse, as well as neglect and related health risks such as bedsores, falls, dehydration, malnutrition, medication errors, and infections.

The site also provides guidance on reporting concerns, prevention, resident rights, nursing home safety, and relevant federal and state laws. For families considering legal action, NHAC offers information about legal options, compensation, case values, lawsuits, and finding lawyers by state. Visitors can request a free legal case review and connect with a legal representative through its intake process; the site identifies Sokolove Law and co-counsel as parties that may contact people who submit the form
