  • Failure to Protect Every Resident from All Forms of Abuse Including Physical and Sexual Assault, Physical Punishment, and Neglect by Anybody – citation #F600 date October 5, 2018
  • The state investigators determined that the nursing home “failed to ensure that residents were free from neglect.” The state investigators interviewed the resident who stated that “she felt like the way the facility treated her [regarding] incontinent care and personal hygiene was abusive.”

    The resident explained that “she did not have any problems on the day shift; however, she stated that the 3:00 PM to 11:00 PM shift was hit and miss with coming into change her adult brief. The resident referred to documentation she had on her mobile phone and stated she would send this information to the surveyor via email once the interview was completed.”

    The resident documented in a detailed record over a mobile phone that a Certified Nursing Assistant (CNA) “made me wait from 6:40 PM to 8:40 PM to clean me up after I had a bowel movement.” The resident stated that “I was changed only twice from 11:00 PM to 9:30 AM, which resulted in the incontinent pads under my bottom becoming soaked.” The resident said, “I was changed at 10:30 PM by my CNA, but was not changed again until 3:00 AM.”

    The resident said that “by that time, my sheets, pad, and linens were all wet. When I brought this up to my CNA, she argued with me, and she said she had no responsibility to change me if my light was not on and said it was my fault because my light was not on.”

Jonathan did a great job helping my family navigate through a lengthy lawsuit involving my grandmother's death in a nursing home. Through every step of the case, Jonathan kept my family informed of the progression of the case. Although our case eventually settled at a mediation, I really was impressed at how well prepared Jonathan was to take the case to trial. Lisa

After I read Jonathan’s Nursing Home Blog, I decided to hire him to look into my wife’s treatment at a local nursing home. Jonathan did a great job explaining the process and the laws that apply to nursing homes. I immediately felt at ease and was glad to have him on my side. Though the lawsuit process was at times frustrating, Jonathan reassured me, particularly at my deposition. I really felt like Jonathan cared about my wife’s best interests, and I think that came across to the lawyers for the nursing home. Eric
