Home Abuse > Emotional Abuse
Strict standards are set in place in the state of
Oklahoma to ensure all patients in nursing homes are treated
properly. Unfortunately, these guidelines are not
always followed resulting in the injury of loved ones.
Emotional abuse in a nursing home should not be tolerated.
Common occurrences of emotional abuse include the chastising
of patients and isolation of patients. Indications of emotional
nursing home abuse are extremely withdrawn and non-communicative
patients, emotional upset and agitated patients and unusual
behavior including sucking, biting and rocking.
