Teens criminally charged with abusing nursing home residents...

Posted on December 2, 2008 by Philip J. Berenz

Two teenagers working at a nursing home were recently charged with abusing residents in a Minnesota nursing home and four others for failing to report the incidents. They were charged with poking, taunting and groping vulnerable residents according to the article in the Grand Forks Herald. Sadly, it was noted:

The Minnesota Department of Health released a report in August showing that 15 residents with Alzheimer's disease or other dementia disorders were abused at the facility between Jan. 1 and May 1.

Your loved ones deserve respect and dignity where they are living out the remainder of their lives. Interrogate staff and the nursing home management about the people who will be caring for your loved ones.
