Posted on May 9, 2009 by Ray Mullman

I have seen several article recently that show the poor choices many nursing home corporations have made in staffing their facilities.  Where is the supervision?  Where is the accountability?

The head of a local nursing home was arrested this week after police said they found 26 grams in her possession of cocaine.  She was with her 4 year old son.  Click here.

The former controller of two western Pennsylvania nursing homes has pleaded guilty to stealing nearly $628,000 from the businesses and not paying federal income taxes on the money.  Click here.

These are the people that they hire to run the nursing home and to take care of our elderly citizens.  This is a disgrace.  Inadequate staff is one thing, incompetent thieving drug-addled staff is another.
