How does this happen?

My mom called and said they have her husband in the hospital with chest,shoulder,neck and head pain. He has been in a nursing home for 10 yrs and wheelchair ridden for about 9 yrs. He cant even stand by himself much less even try to stand. Couple weeks ago she called me and said one of the nurses hit him. Mom went to the nursing home to find out and they both said don't know what to believe with his state of mind and just let it go. Now back to this morning, Mom called me back about 30 minutes later and said that my stepdads neck was broke. How can someone who is in a wheelchair for that long who cant even stand by himself?
