Atlanta, Georgia Nursing Home Sexual Abuse
Sexual harassment and sexual assault can take many forms. Any type of unwanted touching, contact or sexual acts or activities with unwilling seniors can constitute sexual abuse. Engaging in sexual activities with seniors who are no longer able to consent is also considered sexual abuse. Some of the examples of sex abuse that may occur include:
- Fondling
- Rape
- Sexual kissing
- Unwanted penetration
- Exposing the genitals
- Sexual assault
When these or other sexually abusive behaviors occur, affected seniors may develop bruising of the thighs or genital areas, anal bleeding, itching in the genital area, sexually transmitted diseases, swelling of the genitals or an unusual inability to stand or walk. If family members notice these signs, they should take action immediately by contacting law enforcement and an Atlanta, Georgia Elder Abuse Lawyer. Seniors who are victimized by sexual harassment or assault may also exhibit changes in behavior including depression or anxiety.

They were referred to me by a close friend of mine. Extremely professional, and asked the language I feel comfortable to discuss my case in. Alex Rusanov was my case manager and explained every aspect of my case during the process. I would highly recommend to use this law firm if you were injured in a car accident. Drive safe and stay alert!- Angela
