30M Nursing Home Wrongful Death Verdict
Myers v. NHC Healthcare-McMinnville:
Nearly $30 million verdict against a Nashville, Tennessee nursing facility, whose negligence and abuse resulted in a patient’s death. The client sustained several injuries such as a broken hip, pressure sores, urosepsis, and complications from poor hygiene, including repeatedly being left to sit in his own waste. This client’s suffering was part of larger systemic problems within the nursing home company, including their willingness to take on higher volumes of patients despite serious staffing shortages.
