Bedbug Infestation at Missouri Assisted Living Facility

It appears the bed bug infestation discussed on the national news has found its way to a Kansas City Assisted Living Facility. The Missouri Department of Health and Senior Services has cited Rockhill Manor, a 190 resident facility. Apparently, this facility has been fighting the infestation since October 2010. The facility Administrator, Russ Baker, has apparently hired an exterminator, cleaned mattresses, and sealed floor cracks in an effort to eradicate the bugs. Additionally, residents can no longer do their own laundry.
