What Does the Ensign Group Securities Class Action Allege?

2. Ensign’s abuse and neglect includes not giving residents enough food, medical attention, or even basic toiletries as well as failing to respond to residents in clear distress, which has resulted in resident deaths;

3. Ensign uses self-reporting measures as a way to cover up that it systematically neglects patients;

4. Ensign defrauds Medicaid and Medicare by taking federal funds to help patients who need high levels of care, and then neglecting those same patients;

5. Ensign falsifies the number of hours that Certified Nursing Assistants spend with residents;

6. Ensign engages in an illegal scheme to rent the licenses of Administrators who are not generally present at, nor actually managing, its facilities;

7. Ensign materially understated the reputational and litigation exposure that comes with a dangerous, abhorrent, and illegal business model; and
