One of the owners of New Jersey's largest nursing home, where at least 15 bodies were discovered crammed into a four-person morgue on Monday, was a top executive at a collapsed chain of troubled nursing homes.
Toby Edelman, senior policy attorney with the nonprofit Center for Medicare Advocacy, called the discovery of the bodies at the New Jersey nursing home"horrifying." But she said the link to Skyline made it worse.
The chain ultimately fell to ruin in 2018, displacing hundreds of residents and leaving more than a dozen facilities shuttered in its wake. Former employees filed suit accusing the company's owners of pocketing their insurance premiums. "I couldn't keep her safe, but they said they could," Thompson previously told NBC News."If someone did that to an animal, they would be arrested."
"You're just standing there shaking your head, because, obviously, the more information you have when you get to the patient, the better care you can provide for them," he said. The family members, she said, complained that they had not been able to get in touch with Andover staff and were anxious about their loved ones' health.
