The Long Term Care Community Coalition is reporting that New York State fined 22 nursing homes in the 2nd Quarter of 2011 (3/18/11 – 6/30/11) including the Sutton Park Center for Nursing and Rehabilitation in New Rochelle, NY.
Sutton Park Center was fined $4,000 for an incident on June 18, 2009 and $10,00 for an incident on January 19, 2010. Information is based on a report by the New York State Department of Health.
Under state law nursing homes can be fined up to $2,000 per deficiency. These fines may be increased to $5,000 if the same violation is repeated within twelve months and the violations were a serious threat to health and safety. These fines may also be increased up to $10,000 if the violation directly results in serious physical harm
