Description
Arlene Renteria (Renteria) was diagnosed with Huntingtons Chorea, a disease that subjected her to the risk of skin deterioration. Though there is a conflict of evidence that must be resolved by a trier of fact, there is evidence that Renteria was transferred to Huntington East Valley Hospital (East Valley) from Covina Rehabilitation Center (Covina) with sores, ulcers and methcillin resistant staph aureus (MRSA). She died two months later at Kindred Hospital at age 38 due to infection to a sacral decubitus skin ulcer. For three years prior to her admission to East Valley, Renteria was in the care of Covina. Renterias successors in interest (Renterias successors) sued Covina for, among other things, dependent adult abuse on the theory that Covina did not satisfy its custodial obligation to meet Renterias basic needs when it failed to follow the care plan for the maintenance of Renterias skin.
