Officials alleged the late notice for transfers"endangered the health of its residents and also left families scrambling to find other places to care for their loved ones."Additionally, the false information which led to higher award ratings was submitted"to attract prospective residents and their families."
As part of the settlement, Brookdale must appoint a monitor to oversee compliance at its Kern County facility and pay $2.4 million in civil penalties, plus other costs.
