Nursing home neglect attorneys from Wilkes & McHugh, P.A. represented Margaret Muccianti who went to Willow Creek Care Center to recover from an operation to remove a blood clot in her leg. Thirty-two days later she was improperly discharged from the facility. Ms. Muccianti died shortly thereafter from complications arising out of a bowel disease that had gone undiagnosed and untreated by staff despite the fact that she had lost more than 30 pounds during her stay. The jury returned the largest verdict ever reached against a Fresno County, California nursing home, $5.2 million.
