Minnesota Nursing Home Worker Cited for Neglect

An employee at Evergreen Terrace in Grand Rapids, Minnesota has been cited for neglect by the Minnesota Department of Health. On March 9, the employee was taking the resident to a bathroom without a transfer belt and with only one staff member, instead of two, violating the resident's care plan. The resident fell fractured an elbow and bruised a hip. The employee, who had been disciplined twice before, was suspended and then fired.
