A nursing facility in California was found liable for reckless, malicious, oppressive, and fraudulent care to a resident. The resident suffered bedsores due to neglect. The nursing facility was understaffed to increase profits. The facility put profits over the care and safety of residents by purposely understaffing the location.
When abuse and neglect result in severe injury or even death, Arkansans have the right to hold those wrongdoers accountable. We must maintain our right to hold corporate nursing homes accountable in a civil court. Holding wrongdoers accountable keeps our families safe.
