: Illinois Nursing Home Abuse BlogNursing Home Sued After Wrongful Death
By Levin & Perconti
A man died two days after tipping over in his wheelchair near a nurse?s station in a nursing home. Now the man?s estate is suing the nursing home, saying that his wrongful death was due to elderly negligence. The lawyer?s assert that the home did not provide the man with adequate supervision when they failed to provide visual checks and appropriate restraints.
