In many cases, it may be possible to pursue a legal claim against a nursing home when you have had a loved one be the victim of abuse or neglect. A nursing home may be subject to employer liability for abuse or neglect that was inflicted by individual staff members working at the nursing home. Or a nursing home may be held directly liable for its own negligence that fostered the conditions for abuse or neglect, such as negligently hiring staff members who posed a significant risk of causing abuse or neglect or having insufficient monitoring to detect when abuse or neglect occurs.
Complaints about health care facilities such as nursing homes may be filed with the New Jersey Department of Health. Complaints may be filed either online or by fax or by mail, or if someone wishes to file a complaint anonymously, via phone. Complaints may also be directed to the New Jersey State Long-Term Care Ombudsman, who investigates allegations of abuse or neglect and refers complaints to the appropriate authorities if necessary. Finally, if you believe that a loved one is in imminent danger of serious injury or death from nursing home abuse, you can always call 911 or contact the local police department for assistance.
