Four nursing homes in the Chattanooga region have been cited for serious deficiencies in the last two years. That means there's been a threat to patients' safety, or potential for a patient's life to be endangered. Of the four, only one violation involved a fatality: a 66-year-old Alexian Village resident who tumbled off her bed as a nurse's assistant was turning her. She later died from internal bleeding. In fact, of the 900 nursing homes in the tri-state area, 90 serious deficiency findings have been issued in the past three years.
