Retirement homes: 30 complaints filed against Korian – franceinfo

These complaints were filed for “endangering the lives of others”, “non-assistance to a person in danger” and “manslaughter”. Article written by Published on 07/06/2022 23:50 Reading time: 1 min. Thirty complaints targeting nursing homes from the Korian group, in particular for “manslaughter”, have been filed with a dozen prosecutors in several regions, lawyer Sarah Saldmann told AFP on Tuesday, June 7, confirming information from the Parisian. These complaints against X come from 18 families of residents, for acts of “endangering the lives of others”, “non-assistance to a person in danger” and “manslaughter”. They were filed in Aix-en-Provence, Bobigny, Bourges, Le Mans, Marseille, Nantes, Niort, Paris, Pau and Versailles, detailed Sarah Saldmann. Korian reacted quickly, saying in a press release that the lawyer had “at no time taken action to formalize the complaints of her clients and thus assert their interests”. The group “is unaware of all the content of these complaints and therefore cannot make any comment” and recalls that “all serious situations brought to (its) knowledge are dealt with and systematically declared to the authorities”. Sarah Saldmann was already at the origin of nearly 80 complaints filed in April in Nanterre against the Orpea group for similar facts, in the wake of the scandal triggered by the book-investigation Les Fossoyeurs by journalist Victor Castanet. Most of these procedures – apart from those concerning clinics of the Clinea subsidiary – have already “been investigated”, she said.
