When she was admitted to facility 2/17/14, she had renal disease, diabetes, and a pleurx in her back. My mother was able to feed herself, talk on phone, and get to bathroom with assistance. After a week or two she couldn’t do any of those things and she grew weak. I found my mother lethargic when I visited her one day and nurse said she didn’t eat or drink for two days(she had food in her mouth) or take medication knowing she had renal failure. They admitted my mother to moore regional hospital, put on a ventilator and found out she caught c.diff (colon inf) and her kidneys were functioning at 15%.. She passed 3/15/14. Tom Klammer August 12, 2011 Some things don’t seem to change much. HCR ManorCare has quite the history of abuse, neglect, and short staffing. In 2003, I was aksed to testify before a hearing of the Subcommittee on Aging of the Committee on Health, Education, Labor and Pensions of the US Senate. ManorCare featured quite prominently. Testimony can be found at http://ftp.resource.org/gpo.gov/hearings/108s/89354.txt Scroll down to STATEMENT OF TOM KLAMMER, REPRESENTATIVE OF WALTER LEONARD KLAMMER, ADVOCATE, KANSAS CITY, MO or do a text search for “ManorCare.” Deb August 11, 2011 CEOs of Sun Healthcare purchased 4 ocean front homes in Newport Beach, Calif in the past few years, after slumlording in their SunBridge Nursing home in 2003, causing 5 deaths I personally knew of, including my mother, Evelyn Calvert, Richard Laga, Betty Harness, Stella Carter and a man in Rm 2B in Oct 2003. All from lack of staffing and numerous pieces of broken equipment. We warned the CEO in May, 2003 yet by November these patients lost their lives. They make $2 M annual salary yet under staff nurses. Federal medicare is the bulk of their income, they shouldn’t be allowed to rip off the beneficiaries of medicare in this manner. They are greedy men causing manslaughter of the elderly for profit. Deborah August 9, 2011 Sun Healthcare Group Inc severely neglected my mother and caused her death, too. But the CEO cheated us out of wrongful death when he conspired with my former, late, corrupt attorney whom I sued for malpractice and won. That corrupt attorney passed on threats in mediation from the CEO that I wasn’t getting the keys to his Bentley and would be harmed if I pursued our case to a jury trial where we could easily prove that CEO’s willful misconduct. www.sunhealthcaregroupinc.blogspot.com Two CEOs have had the nerve to slumlord in the same city they reside in (Newport Beach, California) and evade proseuction for violating a Calif state injunction.
