Some healthcare facilities are seriously understaffed or staffed with poorly trained doctors and nurses. In some instances, inadequate training can result in these unmistakable signs of abuse or neglect:
- Failing to provide food or water or failure to prevent malnutrition or dehydration
- Failing to assist in personal hygiene
- Failing to provide safe, clean, and decent living conditions
- Failing to provide adequate treatment and services for incontinent residents
- Failing to provide appropriate supervision and assistive devices to prevent accidents
- Failing to provide adequate medical care and proper medications
- Failure to ensure that residents are free from serious medication errors
- Failing to prevent a resident from developing pressure sores
- Failure to provide proper treatment to promote healing when a resident already has pressure sores
