Don’t Let Understaffing in Elder Care Facilities Affect Your Loved Ones

By Justice For Our Parents

Staffing / Training Issues



Understaffing in elder care facilities is costing lives. Many nursing homes and assisted living facilities across Los Angeles and Orange County are dangerously understaffed, leading to pressure ulcers, missed medications, untreated infections, delayed emergency response, and increased falls. A recent National Consumer Voice for Quality Long-Term Care survey found that 88% of nursing home residents experience the effects of understaffing daily, from skipped meals to prolonged isolation. 

At @Justice For Our Parents, we encourage families placing a loved one in a facility to investigate staffing levels before deciding to use that facility. Ask critical questions, review public reports, and make unannounced visits to spot warning signs. We can show you how.
