Judgment was entered today on a $30.9 million jury verdict issued this week against long term care provider Plum Healthcare and its skilled nursing facility known as Pine Creek Care Center in Roseville, California. The plaintiffs in the case, Sam Rios, Jr., deceased, his wife and his eight adult children, were represented by attorneys Edward P. Dudensing, Jay P. Renneisen and Andrew J. Collins. After a ten week trial, the Sacramento jury found defendants Plum Healthcare and its parent company Bay Bridge Capital Partners liable for reckless, malicious, oppressive and fraudulent conduct in the care of Sam Rios, Jr., who was an 86-year-old resident in their skilled nursing facility for two weeks in April of 2017. The verdict is believed to be the largest nursing home elder abuse verdict ever in the greater Sacramento and San Francisco Bay Area regions.
