State Recommends Fines For Rest Homes


print friendly

The state is recommending fines for two rest homes that were cited for issues with their patients.

Officials suggest fining the Oliver House $10,000 after

Williard Raper

, an 85-year-old Alzheimer's patient, died after he wandered away from the Wendell home.

The review board also recommended a smaller fine for a

Cary adult-care facility

, where another patient walked away.

Two people driving by Alterra found the 89-year-old in his wheelchair on the side of the road.
