Seniors

==Our seniors' golden years shouldn't be tarnished.==
Newspapers around the country used public records, some never before released, to uncover abuses that senior citizens in assisted care or nursing home facilities were enduring: Malnutrition. Dehydration. Delayed diagnosis. Even violent abuse.
By analyzing records from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and from state social services agencies, the newspapers were able to expose and stop these unhealthy and sometimes deadly abuses.
Public access to government documents is a fundamental right of this nation. Itâ€™s critical to safeguarding everyone â€” particularly those who canâ€™t protect themselves.
