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.

My attorney, David Van Sant and his law firm were outstanding in handling my personal injury case. I was out of work for a considerable amount of time due to an automobile accident and Mr. Van Sant and his entire team were always kind, professional, knowledgeable and especially available. This law firm did their absolute best to answer and return calls and at no time did I ever feel like just a number or stranger. My experience with Mr. Van Sant and his law firm (from beginning to end), were very positive as well as favorable.

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.
