Federal Settlements with Virginia Nursing Homes
Posted on Feb 09, 2006
The U.S. Attorney's Office in Virginia has investigated numerous nursing homes for fraud and substandard care. The investigations have led to settlements with nine Virginia nursing homes. The settlements require facilities to pay monetary penalties and invest in improving the quality of care for the patients. These settlements may lead to improved care for current and future residents, however, they do little for people already victimized. If you believe that a loved one has been a victim of abuse and neglect at a Virginia nursing home or assisted living facility, we welcome you to contact us.
