How to Report Nursing Home Abuse & Neglect in Sacramento

Once you realize there’s an issue of nursing home abuse or neglect whether you’ve seen it first hand or recognized the indicators, it’s time to report them to the necessary authorities. You’ll need to know who to contact, depending on the situation and how it needs to be solved.

If a nursing home commits these acts, they can face citations, fines, and penalties from multiple sources.

Medical or Criminal Emergency

Whenever there is an instance of immediate medical or criminal danger, the first step is to call 911 for help. Local police and emergency responders will be there quickly to offer the relevant assistance needed.

Imminent Danger or Suspected Criminal Activity

If there isn’t an issue that requires immediate attention but you do feel there’s a potential threat to the health or safety of your loved one, reach out to the non-emergency line for your local authorities. Contact the Sacramento County Sheriff’s Department at (916) 874-5115 for assistance with investigations and eventual prosecutions.

Once the local police have been made aware of the problem, the next step is to contact the nearest Adult Protective Services (APS) group at:

Phone: (916) 874-9377

Issues with Standard of Care
Sometimes you may feel your senior loved one or family member isn’t getting the proper care they deserve. If that’s the case, make sure you reach out to your county’s California Department of Public Health office If you’re in Sacramento County, you’ll need to contact:

Sacramento District Office

Additional Resources

If you’d like assistance with research or want a liaison to assist with investigating your complaints, you can always contact a California ombudsman for help.

But even after you’ve communicated these concerns to the Public Health office, you should also hire a Sacramento nursing home abuse lawyer to learn your rights and garner defense from future problems.

Top Sacramento Nursing Home Neglect Lawyers

Overall, Sacramento nursing homes provide exceptionally great care to those who are living on their premises. With certified medical professionals on staff prepared to offer a higher level of service, they tend to have a more comprehensive approach that includes healthcare, compared to assisted living facilities, which provide more basic care as part of daily living.

About 13% of the Sacramento County population are considered senior citizens as about 189,200 people living there are over the age of 65 years old. Most of the people living in nursing homes are at least 80 years old, but about 3,426 senior citizens reside within 36 skilled nursing home facility locations around the county.

According to ratings shared by Medicare.gov, nearly half of the nursing homes in Sacramento scored five stars, while another eight scored four stars for their staffing, health inspections, and quality of life. You should always conduct detailed research like this prior to choosing a location for your loved one. All too often, people have needed the help of our Sacramento nursing home neglect attorneys simply because they didn’t do their due diligence and ended up in a bad situation.

Unfortunately, all the research in the world won’t always prevent the possibility of abuse or negligence at a location. At the first sign of these problems, you should instantly contact a group of professional Sacramento nursing home abuse attorneys.
