The Doctors Hospital of West Covina failed to provide adequate care to a patient who suffered from ALS, also known as Lou Gehrig's disease, leading to severe medical complications and ultimately her death, alleges a new lawsuit.
The complaint, filed Nov. 3 in Los Angeles County Superior Court, seeks unspecified damages for the alleged elder abuse and wrongful death of San Dimas resident Claudette Hise, who lived at the 24-hour skilled nursing facility for the last four years of her life.
