A Paris lawyer is preparing a group lawsuit against nursing home company Korian following complaints of mistreatment in its facilities. The news comes a week after similar complaints levelled at the Orpea group prompted outrage and an official investigation.
Lawyer Sarah Saldmann told FranceInfo radio on Sunday that she had received "dozens of complaints" by relatives of people living in elderly care facilities run by Korian. She intends to bring a group lawsuit in April, bringing together the claims of numerous individual plaintiffs.
