Why We Created the Nursing Home Neglect Warning Signs Tool Families are often the first to notice when nursing home care changes. A resident may lose weight, seem withdrawn, have unexplained injuries, or appear less clean than usual. These changes can be alarming, especially when staff members do not give clear answers or the same problems keep happening. We created this tool to give families a simple way to look at concerns over a nursing home more clearly. The screening tool does not diagnose neglect or replace legal advice. However, it can help you review common warning signs, understand whether poor care may be putting a resident at risk, and decide whether to keep monitoring the situation, report a concern, or get legal help. What the Screening Tool Checks For The tool focuses on warning signs that can be easy to question or explain away at first. These may include changes in a resident’s condition, care, surroundings, or behavior. Our questions are based on common warning signs of neglect, including: Bedsores (pressure ulcers) Behavioral changes Dehydration Lack of medical attention Poor hygiene Unexplained weight loss or injuries Worsening physical condition These signs do not always prove neglect. However, they can show that a nursing home resident may not be getting the care, supervision, or medical attention they need. Get Legal Help After Nursing Home Neglect Depending on what you report, your results may help you decide whether it makes sense to seek legal help. The goal is simple: Help you move from uncertainty to a clearer next step. Do not ignore your instincts if you believe someone in a nursing home is being neglected, ignored, or left unsafe.
