Patient goes to ER with worst headache of life, 10/10 pain, vomiting & more. DC’d with sinus infection. Dead within days from undiagnosed aneurysm. Beginning depositions to hold the medical system accountable. Heartbreaking but fulfilling day bringing closure to a grieving family

Meanwhile in Ohio... There is an effort to rush out a new law making nursing homes (among others) immune from wrongful death lawsuits even when the nursing home was careless or negligent. So glad reporters like @SaraGoldenberg are covering it! cleveland19.com/2020/05/27/n… – at Cleveland, OH

Treating physician deposition in a nursing home fall case in which @MenorahParkOhio is taking the position it’s acceptable to let a lady who’s 2 days post-op, known fall risk, fall in the bathroom with 2 aides standing there. #nope #NiceViewThough #EndingNursingHomeAbuse – at Cleveland, OH

When poor care is a trend...
Beginning depositions at The Laurels of Middletown in a wrongful death case involving the death of short term rehab patient. Earlier this week it was depositions at The Laurels of Mt. Vernon. Different building. Same story. #EndingNursingHomeAbuse #EadieHillTrialLawyers

Investigative journalism is one reason better nursing home regulations were passed in 1989 and 2016. Worth supporting!

This is horrendous. Thank you for the fight @MichaelHillAtty
Just filed in a wrongful death lawsuit against a nursing home in Ohio (Pristine Senior Management) for a family whose mother was severely injured in a fall but never sent to the hospital. She showed clear signs of a head injury for 6 days before dying #endingnursinghomeabuse
