Family of Woodstock Residences Nursing Home Victim to File Suit

By Levin & Perconti

ADVERTISEMENTS

Steven Levin of Levin & Perconti will represent Virginia Cole?s surviving family members in a nursing home abuse and wrongful death lawsuit. Virginia Cole was one of the victims at Woodstock Residences, the Chicago-area nursing home at the center of a pending criminal trial.

Two former nursing home employees of Woodstock Residences were charged in McHenry County with causing the deaths of four residents at the nursing home. The charges include criminal neglect of the nursing home residents and overmedicating patients with morphine.

At a press conference on Monday with the victim?s son in law, Steven Levin commented on the role of nurse Marty Himebaugh at Woodstock Residences: ?The director of nurses at the facility -- and this is a quote from the indictment -- was encouraging Marty Himebaugh to act in a role of angel of death.? Mr. Levin will file suit in the Circuit Court of Cook County shortly.
