The CMS issued a federal memo restoring visitation in U.S. nursing homes👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻. The CMS is commanding these facilities to allow visitation when a facility has had no new COVID-19 outbreaks for the last 14 days, and the community positivity rate is below 10%.
The memo is loaded with language to support visitation in nursing homes and includes mandates eradicating the 6-month visitation ban that has broken millions of family’s hearts👵🏻❤️.

The California Elder Abuse Act aims to protect seniors from abuse, neglect, and fraud. The Act prohibits the following behaviors directed at anyone 65 or older:
🔷Physical Abuse
🔷Mental Abuse
🔷Neglect and Endangerment
🔷Financial Abuse
What the Act seeks is to stipulate significant penalties for those who abuse the elderly, and to remark that those commended with their care are held to a higher caring standard and will suffer greater penalties if they violate it👩🏻⚕️.

Nursing home neglect occurs when the facility staff fails to provide the care residents need to prevent or avoid an injury🩹.
These long-term care settings have a legal obligation to perform a series of duties to preserve the elderly's health👵🏻. If the facility fails to do so, residents are at high risk of injury.
Do you know how to spot the warning signs of nursing home neglect?

”Elder" means any person residing in this state, 65 years of age or older. Under California law, elder abuse can be both criminal and civil:
👉🏻 Criminal abuse occurs when a person willfully causes or permits an elder to suffer, or inflicts unjustifiable physical or mental pain.
👉🏻 Civil law defines it as physical abuse, neglect, financial abuse, abandonment, isolation, or other treatment resulting in harm or mental suffering to an elder.

"One might almost conclude that the death toll that has so traumatized and destabilized much of Western society in 2020 was not wrought principally by the coronavirus, but by nursing homes." https://harpers.org/archive/2020/09/elder-abuse-nursing-homes-covid-19/

The study "Identifying Injury Patterns Associated with Physical Elder Abuse" compares cases of patients (+60) injured by an unintentional fall with medical records of prosecuted Elder Abuse cases🤕, and the study reveals several different injury patterns:
👵🏻 Abuse victims are more likely to have a face, head, or neck injury without visible harm to other parts of the body 🩹 Injury victims are more likely to have scrapes, fractures, or injuries below the waist.
The most alarming fact is that 22% of cases identified and prosecuted had no visible injury recorded but the victims indicated pain in the arms, chest, face, and jaw. This makes Elder Abuse hard to detect and even harder to report👎🏻.
If you suspect someone you love is being mistreated, don’t let him or her be part of these terrible statistics, TAKE ACTION❗️ Our Elder Abuse Hotline is always available to victims and their loved ones: 866-391-3292📲

Take Action Now: Oppose Immunity for Nursing Homes that Harm Residents
Last week, Senate Majority Leader, Mitch McConnell, introduced a bill that would have devastating consequences on nursing home residents. The legislation, called the Safe to Work Act (S 4317), would remove a nursing home’s liability for all negligent care that harms or results in the death of residents from 2019 until 2024 - including harm totally unrelated to COVID-19.

While long-term care facilities should take precautions to safeguard the safety of the patients👵🏻, the harms caused by cutting residents off from visitors have become unbearable. Residents throughout the country are suffering from profound social isolation and neglect😞.
That’s why the California Advocates for Nursing Home Reform (CANHR) started a campaign to restore reasonable visitation to residents in long-term care facilities through a safe visitor program #VisitationSavesLives❗️
Since then, a new California State Policy allowing visitation has been established🙌🏻. But now that residents are regaining some of their rights, the #VisitationSavesLives campaign will advocate for better state enforcement, as well as the restoration of visitation rights for assisted living residents, who were not affected by the change in state policy😕.
Thank you to all who contributed❤️. And remember that the work isn't done! We urge you to visit visitationsaveslives.com to see how you can help.

Elder abandonment is the purposeful desertion of an elder by someone caring for that person. The victim may be left at a hospital, nursing home, or in a public location... Whatever the reason for the abandonment, one can only imagine the confusion and despair that the victim feels😞. If the senior is afflicted with cognitive impairment, they could forget who they are and what they need to do. If you or someone you know is a victim of elder abandonment, we invite you to call us at 844-277-1160 to have no-obligation, free consultation where we can discuss ways to help the victim🧓🏻. #Attorney #Justice #ElderAbuse #LosAngelesLawyer #Abuse
