Most of these falls at preventable, meaning that the home is at fault for resulting injuries or deaths. Another common cause of injury or infection in nursing homes is the development of bed sores, which develop when residents lay in one position for prolonged periods of time. The occurrence of bed sores is preventable with proper care and oversight. Sadly, these sores can be a result of either incompetence or outright malicious neglect and other forms of abuse.
