Our Michigan nursing home neglect lawyers are reporting a recent story in the Detroit Free Press about two troubled nursing homes in the City of Detroit, that still remain open regardless of the fact that federal ratings show it is one of the state’s lowest performing facilities – St. James Nursing Center in Detroit and Omni Continuing Care in Detroit. Both homes are owned by Ciena Healthcare Management. The story of these nursing homes, particularly St. James, shows that a substandard nursing home with many continuing violations can still remain open for business.

Brittany Manor in Midland, Michigan, also owned by Ciena, is also one of the state’s lowest performing nursing homes as well. However, Ciena, a nursing home chain with nearly three dozen Michigan facilities, owns both rich and poor nursing homes. Ciena recently opened its newest nursing home in Waterford, Michigan called Regency at Waterford. While the Regency shines, St. James, Omni, and Brittany have been cited again and again by state inspectors for serious abuse and neglect in patient care.

These there homes are not alone when it comes to being near the bottom in serious violations. In fact, more than three-quarters of Michigan homes received at least one violation in the last three years. All three of these homes, including others, residents have died due to some form of abuse and several incidents have failed to have been reported.

The concern and question is of many, not limiting to Ciena, but to any chain that has an extreme mix of rich and poorly financed nursing homes, why is that money being spent on building new homes instead of being spent on fixing the old, struggling places.

According to a report done by the Detroit Free Press, over the last three years, state inspectors cited Michigan’s 427 nursing homes 2.5 times on average for serious violations, meaning residents were harmed or place din immediate jeopardy because of something the nursing home did wrong. In fact, at St. James and Omni, state regulators found serious violations 11 and 13 times, respectively – the highest statewide. St. James was also the most fined home in Michigan, being fined $300,349. Altogether, Michigan levied $9.9 million in federal fines against nursing homes, more than any other state in the nation.

Our Michigan nursing home neglect lawyers represent nursing home residents and their families in lawsuits against nursing homes and residential care facilities, such as St. James of Detroit, Omni Continuing Care, and Brittany Manor in Midland. There are strict laws and regulations to protect the safety and welfare of these residents. Unfortunately, nursing home patients do not always receive appropriate care and the results can be severe and are often deadly.

If you or a family member suffers injuries due to nursing home neglect or abuse, call our office now at (800) 606-1717 to speak with one of our experienced Michigan personal injury lawyers.  We will represent you under our No Fee Promise, meaning you do not pay any legal fees whatsoever until we win or settle your case.

Johnson & Johnson’s DePuy hip replacements have been on the market for years.  People have received these implants to better their mobility and live a fuller life.  On Thursday, August 26, 2010, Johnson & Johnson made a public announcement to notify patients of their DePuy hip replacement recall. 

The two models that were included in the recall were the ASR XL Acetabular system and the ASR Hip Resurfacing System.  Both systems could cause permanent damage to bone, muscle and nerves if installed.

For a number of patients the recall was long overdue.  For more than two years, Johnson & Johnson has received complaints about their defective hip replacements.  Some victims of the defective product suffered agonizing pain and were forced to undergo corrective surgery.  

Approximately 93,000 hip replacement devices have been implanted worldwide.  It is estimated that one third of those were implanted in the United States.  As early as 2008, patients have been issuing complaints to the F.D.A. 

Those who have undergone surgery and are experiencing pain from the DePuy hip replacement may have a claim for compensation.  To find out what your options are it is best to consult with an experienced DuPuy lawyers who can give you expert guidance.  The top DePuy recall lawyers will usually offer free consultations and a no win no fee guarantee.

According to police, Altman was alive when the bus struck him however died due to multiple blunt force injuries, including multiple traumatic injuries, fractures to his ribs, sternum, pelvis, and legs.

Our Michigan bus accident lawyers advise victims of their legal rights. Victims of bus-pedestrian accidents do have legal rights. If you or a family member suffer injuries due to a Michigan bus accident, you may have claims for your personal injuries and can file Michigan no-fault insurance claims for medical expenses, lost wages, and other benefits.  Families of people who are killed in bus accidents can often file a Michigan Wrongful Death Claim. At the very least, they should hire the best possible lawyer to look into these possibilities.
