The corporation shouldnt be sued though.... the nurses that were documenting that she had it on every shift ought to be the ones in trouble, losing their liscences.(sp). Again, I defend the LifeCare that I work at. ( which isnt this home in question) yes, further in the site there are articles about LifeCare.
