Nursing Homes: Separating Statutory Claims From Plain Old Negligence
Louis G. Adolfsen and Steven I. Lewbel, members of Melito & Adolfsen, write: Public Health Law �2801-d protects against violations of the rights or benefits of patients at residential health care facilities and allows recovery of damages based on "the daily per-patient rate" for the facility. Since a patient may also sue the nursing home for negligence or malpractice, there is a possibility that the claim under the PHL may prejudice the defense of these common law claims. Indeed, if the claims are presented to a jury in a manner that suggests that a violation of the PHL can be considered as part of the claim for damages for negligence, the jury may be confused.More In-House Lawyers Question the Billable Hour

Today, nearly every nursing home dispute in Pennsylvania, and the rest of the United States, involves either an optional or mandatory predispute arbitration agreement. Although some states have resisted enforcing predispute personal injury arbitration agreements, the U.S. Supreme Court rejected such efforts and recently overturned a West Virginia Supreme Court of Appeals decision that "held unenforceable [as a matter of state public policy] all predispute arbitration agreements that apply to claims alleging personal injury or wrongful death against nursing homes."Trending Stories
