The Windsor Gardens Convalescent and Rehabilitation Center, a nursing home located in San Diego, Calif., was recently shut down by the California Department of Health Services. Officials indicated they will request the California Attorney General’s office of Medi-Cal Fraud and Elder Abuse to consider criminal charges.
The action follows the release of the department’s 167-report, containing numerous, documented allegations that patients received poor care at the 99-bed facility, which health officials ranked in the worst 4 percent of California nursing facilities.
According to The San Diego Union Tribune, Windsor Gardens now faces fines of $3,000 per day from October 11 until such a date that the facility reaches compliance with state regulations. In addition, the California Board of Registered Nurses has been asked to examine the competency of Windsor Garden’s staff.
