Nursing Homes Fined Following Resident’s Death, Lapses In Care

By Kate Farrish | December 4, 2015

Five nursing homes have been fined by the state Department of Public Health, including an Apple Rehab home in Old Saybrook that was fined $1,090 in connection with a resident who died of complications from pelvic fractures after falls at the home. The resident lived at Apple Rehab Saybrook, and a medical examiner ruled the death an accident, the DPH citation dated Tuesday said. On July 31, the resident was found on the floor, yelling, with a bruise on a wrist. On Aug. 4, the resident was seen by a doctor for abdominal pain and a temperature of 100 degrees.
