Adult Abuse and Neglect – AARP opposes Senate Bill 9 (Senator J. Denton) and its new system to review nursing home residents’ claims of wrong doing or neglect by an appointed “Medical Review Panel.”  And it requires residents pay additional filing and processing fees just to submit their case to the new review panel.
