Nursing Home Abuse in San Diego County
San Diego County's large military retiree and civilian retirement population creates significant demand for nursing home and long-term care services. The county's facilities include several large for-profit chain facilities with histories of CMS deficiency citations as well as respected non-profit and faith-based operators. San Diego County Superior Court has a well-developed complex civil litigation department with experience handling EADACPA claims. Cases involving physical abuse, Stage 3-4 pressure ulcers, and wrongful death from medication errors have produced the largest verdicts in San Diego County elder abuse litigation. The county's proximity to Tijuana has, in rare cases, raised jurisdiction issues when residents are transferred across the border for medical care after facility-caused injuries.
