“More than 50 coronavirus wrongful death suits have been filed against long-term care facilities,” by Danielle Brown,McKnight’s LTC News

Quote:

“Dozens of nursing homes and long-term care providers across the country are already being targeted with coronavirus-related lawsuits, a new report shows. … A legal expert in early September warned that providers could see a wave of coronavirus-related lawsuits after the sector saw a rise in cases in July.”

LTC Comment:   The legal vultures are circling. The same elderlaw attorneys who trap affluent clients in nursing homes on Medicaid often work both ends by litigating against LTC providers when the inevitable poor care outcomes occur.
