(Beaver, Pa.) PA Attorney General Josh Shapiro issued a statement yesterday afternoon announcing that Brighton Rehab and Wellness Center is one of the agency’s subjects of their criminal investigation into neglect at nursing homes during the pandemic. He said his office is dedicated to protecting seniors and our most vulnerable citizens in the care of others. He said, “We won’t tolerate mistreatment of older Pennsylvanians and will hold facilities that break the law accountable.”
He asks that anyone with information regarding neglect at Brighton Rehab or other nursing home facilities in the state is encouraged to report this activity to the office by emailing Neglect-COVID@attorneygeneral. gov
