Apollo Homes Failed to Provide Necessary Care or Services for Resident

Based on a preponderance of evidence, neglect of healthcare is substantiated. The alleged perpetrator (AP) failed to supply the client with care or services that were reasonable and necessary to maintain the client’s physical or mental health or safety when the AP did not ensure the appropriate staff reported to the client’s home for duty, and did not have an appropriate contingency plan, requiring the client’s family member to call 911 and the client to the hospital.

REM Hennepin Lyndale Minneapolis Substantiated Complaint

According to the National Institute of Justice article, sexual abuse is one of the most understudied aspects of elder mistreatment. An NIJ-sponsored study that examined elder sexual abuse found that:

•Elderly sexual assault victims were not routinely evaluated to assess the psychological effects of an assault.
•The older the victim, the less likelihood that the offender would be convicted of sexual abuse.
•Perpetrators were more likely to be charged with a crime if victims exhibited signs of physical trauma.
•Victims in assisted living situations faced a lower likelihood than those living independently that charges would be brought and the assailant found guilty.
