Case Study: Leading Nursing Home Defeats Negligence Claims with Marcum LLP

Nursing Home Responds to Claims of Negligence

Leading Nursing Home, a 140-bed skilled nursing facility in the Midwest, faced a lawsuit after a resident fell and suffered an injury. The family alleged negligence due to insufficient staffing, and the facility’s attorney engaged Marcum LLP to provide professional review of documentation and expert testimony related to staffing compliance.

Marcum LLP researched staffing requirements, completed a staffing analysis, reviewed opposing deposition testimony for errors, and participated in a deposition. The firm’s analysis confirmed the facility met staffing requirements and industry guidelines, and the case was dismissed, helping demonstrate that the facility was not negligent.
