Alden Village North Cited By State After Young Girl's Death

ADVERTISEMENTS

The Chicago Tribune reports that a 14-month-old girl died in July 2010 as a result of negligence at Alden Village North, a facility in Chicago that cares for young adults and children with developmental disabilities. According to the article, the Illinois Department of Public Health cited the facility for a number of violations surrounding her death and the care of other children living in the facility.

The IDPH investigation found that the nursing home staff failed to contact the young girl's physician in a timely manner after a test revealed that she had MRSA on July 3. Her doctor did not receive her test results for two days, and when she was finally taken to the hospital, it was too late. She died from complications related to the infection.
