Sunrise Senior Living Faces Class Action Lawsuit Alleging a Scheme to Defraud Seniors

In June of 2017, a proposed lawsuit against Sunrise Senior Living was filed in California. In this class action case against Sunrise Senior Living, the plaintiffs allege dubious dealings by Sunrise in operating their long term care facilities. Specifically, the complaint alleges staffing based on a budget and not based on patient acuity levels.

“[Sunrise] has engaged in a scheme to defraud seniors, persons with disabilities, and their family members at its assisted living facilities in California by falsely representing to all residents in its admission contracts that each resident will be provided the care services (through facility staff) that the resident needs as determined by a resident assessment conducted by facility personnel. This is false and misleading because Sunrise does not use the results generated by its resident assessment system to determine or provide staffing at its facilities. Sunrise conceals and fails to disclose that, as a matter of corporate policy, Sunrise sets facility staffing per shift based on pre-determined labor budgets that remain static throughout the year despite any increases in aggregated resident needs as determined by resident assessments.”

Our nursing home abuse attorneys have previously detailed how understaffing in a nursing home or A.L.F. negatively impacts resident care and leads to preventable injury.

Sunrise has also faced other accusations relating to alleged employee wage violations.

Common Injuries Resulting in Lawsuits vs. Sunrise Senior Living Assisted Living and Skilled Nursing Facilities

Routinely, we sue assisted living and nursing homes for the following injuries:

• Falls resulting in fractures, broken bones and brain bleed injuries.
• Bed sores, pressure ulcers and deep wounds.
• Patient wandering out of the facility, also called elopement.
• Sexual and physical abuse, perpetrated by staff or other unsupervised residents.
• Medication errors and prescription drug administration mistakes.
• Wrongful death.

Although these injuries are not conclusive evidence of negligence, if your loved one suffered any of the above ailments, your potential case deserves further investigation.

Our lawyers can obtain your family member’s medical records and have them reviewed by an expert. From there, we will determine what happened and whether the injury was preventable.

How Do I Pay for my Attorney in a Sunrise Senior Living Lawsuit?

We work exclusively on a contingency fee basis. This means you pay us nothing unless we win your case. If we do prevail and recover money for you, we take a percentage of the recovery as attorneys fees. This is usually 33 1/3 to 40%, depending on the venue and length of time to achieve the settlement. Costs and medical liens, if any exist, also come out of your recovery. These are also contingent on recovery, meaning they are not to be paid unless you win your case.

Sunrise Senior Living Facilities – Assisted Living, Nursing Home and Memory Care Facilities

How do you know if the facility where your family member was injured is controlled by Sunrise Senior Living? Many Sunrise facilities will bear the name of the company, and then have the city name. For example, Sunrise’s Jacksonville, Florida memory care facility is called, Sunrise of Jacksonville.

However, many Sunrise Senior Living assisted living and nursing home facilities do not share the company’s name. For example, The Quadrangle nursing home in Pennsylvania is owned by Sunrise Senior Living, but does not have ‘Sunrise’ in its name.

Below are a list of some, but certainly not all, of Sunrise’s facilities, separated by state.
