Manorcare of Oak Lawn, IL allows maggots to hatch in wound of 97-year-old resident
A lawsuit was filed today against Manorcare of Oak Lawn, IL. Manorcare is no stranger to allegations of nursing home abuse and neglect. In a verdict earlier this month, the home was ordered to pay $2.9 million to the family of a woman who died when the staff at Manorcare Homewood neglected to care for her trach tube.
