West Virginia Nursing Home Sued in Wrongful Death

Ohio Valley Health Care, a nursing home facility in Parkersburg, West Virginia, and its Administrator, Michael A. Miller, have been sued for the wrongful death of a resident.

Linda Holstine, the daughter of the Eva Davis and the personal representative of her estate, alleges that Ms. Davis "suffered serious injuries from a pattern of poor care, neglect, and abuse rendered by Ohio Valley Health Care and its staff." The alleged injuries include "infections, weight loss, and pain" which "caused the significant destruction of her physical and mental condition during her residency at the facility." Ms. Holstine alleges that Ms. Davis suffered from numerous urinary tract infections and weight loss and that facility staff "failed to timely report these changes to the physician, resulting in delays in treatment". Ms. Davis, a four year resident of the facility, died on April 3, 2008.
