: Illinois Nursing Home Abuse BlogVideo of Niles Nursing Home Fire Victim Available Online
By Levin & Perconti
A local news affiliate has posted video of firefighters attempting to revive one of the victims of the Niles nursing home fire outside of Chicago last night that claimed two lives and critically injured other nursing home residents. The firefighters can be seen performing CPR on one of the victims. The Niles nursing home fire killed two residents who lived in the third floor room where the fire started in a closet. There is no word yet whether the families of the nursing home fire victims plan to file a wrongful death lawsuit or whether the injured nursing home residents will file a nursing home personal injury lawsuit for their nursing home injuries.
