The lawsuit was filed by the administrator of the deceased\u2019s estate. When a person dies, an administrator is charged with determining the assets of the deceased and distributing those assets in accordance with his or her wishes. The lawsuit was filed in Cook County Circuit Court.<\/p>\n<p><\n\nThe lawsuit alleges that the nursing home did not follow medical orders relating to the woman\u2019s care, and this failure was a cause of her death. According to the lawsuit, the woman\u2019s treating doctor ordered that she be turned every two hours while at the nursing home to avoid bed sores. The doctor also ordered that a specific cream be used for the same purpose.\n\nHowever, the lawsuit states that there are no notes from the nursing home indicating that the deceased was ever turned or that the cream was used on her skin.\u00a0Records from the nursing home indicate that the woman had two open sores on her skin, but there is no indication in the records that the sores were ever treated while she was a resident at the nursing home.\n\n <a href=\"https:\/\/www.molllawgroup.com\/blog\/local-illinois-nursing-home-sued-over-death-of-former-resident\/#more-1742\" class=\"more-link\">Continue reading \u2192<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to news reports, a lawsuit has been filed against a nursing home in Joliet relating to the death of a woman who resided at the nursing home in 2013.
