Asta Care nursing home is appealing a $22,500 fine levied by the Illinois Department of Public Health for allegedly failing to protect residents from a sex offender who was a patient at the facility. Asta Care was charged with failure to screen a male resident who made inappropriate sexual advances to staff and two mentally disabled residents, according to state health department records.
