Nursing homes have minimum staffing requirements

Inadequate Staffing at Nursing Homes Can Lead to Injuries and Abuse

Nurse homes are like any other business. In an effort to maximize profits and cut costs, they reduce the total number of staff members and to cut the number of nurses and other trained professionals.

A reduction on the number of nurses and trained staff can adversely affect the residents and can even lead to accidents, injuries and wrongful deaths. Without enough certified nursing assistants or aides, wheel chair bound or bedridden patients may not be repositioned frequently enough. It can also result in other forms of nursing home neglect and abuse, such as malnutrition, bed sores, dehydration, falls, and wandering and elopement.
