AARP recently filed a class action lawsuit against an Illinois nursing home provider Alden and six of its facilities. AARP’s lawsuit claims that Alden failed to adequately staff their facilities with a goal to increase profits. The lawsuit states that the failure to appropriately staff their facilities as required with CNAs and RNs reduced the ability for the facility to accommodate their residents’ needs. The lawsuit further claims that due to the lowered hours and staff, residents suffered negligence of care.
Alden denies any wrongdoing.
