NURSING ASSISTANT, THE: UNDERSTANDING ABUSE AND NEGLECT
Frail health and mental impairments can leave a nursing home resident powerless against abusive behavior and neglect. Situations in which residents are physically or emotionally mistreated usually take place when a caregiver becomes angry or impatient or tries to control a resident by force. When a nursing home admits a resident, the facility and its staff become responsible for his or her safety and well-being.
This revised and updated program provides caregivers with an understanding of what constitutes abusive and neglectful behavior. We will also discuss some of the signs indicating that a resident may have been the victim of mistreatment.
After completing this course, the learner should be able to:
~ Define abuse and neglect
~ Describe examples of abuse and neglect
~ Describe misuse of restraints
~ Describe an example of the misuse of a resident's personal property
~ Describe the action that should be taken when a CAN notice signs that a resident may have been abused or neglected.
