: Illinois Nursing Home Abuse BlogNursing-Home Death Spurs Nursing Home Negligence Suit
By Levin & Perconti
A nursing home negligence suit has been filed against a county alleging shoddy care of a nursing-home resident led to months of pain and ultimately the woman?s death. The elderly negligence lawsuit alleges staffers at the county-run nursing home caused the 81-year-old victim to fail, than failed to treat and report to her doctor a large pressure ulcer that formed.
