'Abuse' found at Calgary nursing home after 97-year-old woman broke leg when dropped


When 97-year-old Tannis Snukal died in hospital, it was four weeks to the day since she'd suffered a broken leg after being dropped by nursing home staff during a bath. Now, Tannis's son Jerry Snukal wants others with loved ones in nursing homes to be vigilant and ask more questions. A report on the incident was done by Burness and Associates Consulting Inc., for the Protection for Persons in Care office. 'Ask as many questions as you want'For 12 years, Jerry advocated and helped care for his mother. A statement of defence filed by the AgeCare Glenmore (formerly the Beverly Centre Glenmore) denies any connection between Tannis' broken leg and her death.
