• Malnutrition and Dehydration: Failure to provide proper nutrition and hydration, leading to weakened states and further health complications.
• Slip-and-Fall Accidents: Often caused by hazardous environments or insufficient assistance, resulting in serious injuries.
• Broken Bones: Fractures sustained due to falls or rough handling.
• Spinal Injuries: Damage to the spinal cord, potentially leading to paralysis or significant disability.
• Head and Brain Injuries: Traumatic injuries resulting from falls or other forms of physical abuse.
• Wrongful Death: The ultimate tragic outcome of severe neglect or abuse.
