Neglect and Abuse in Central Texas Elder Care Facilities
When no one responds after she hits the call button repeatedly, the frail woman shakily clambers out of bed and heads to the bathroom on her own. She has only made it halfway when she falls, fracturing her hip. The painful injury never heals and she dies within months.

Going into a nursing home is scary for elderly people who are incapacitated by physical conditions or mental infirmity. The economic downturn has caused elder care facilities to cut corners more than ever on staffing levels and quality of care. This in turn puts patients at greater risk:
- Bedsores in bedridden patients who are not turned regularly
- Dehydration and malnourishment from lax monitoring
- Undiagnosed medical conditions
- Falling injuries for lack of staff to assist them
- Medication errors
- Mental, physical or sexual abuse
