"Nursing Home Malpractice"

"According to three studies conducted by the Office of Inspector General, at least 20% of nursing home residents sampled are receiving appropriate medication. The studies involved an analysis of Medicaid expenditures for Texas nursing homes, a national survey of pharmacists, and an independent review by medical experts of the drugs and medical records from a sample of Texas nursing homes."
