Karie Valentino to Join Strafford Webinar on Nursing Home Defense

Chicago, Ill. (June 6, 2022) – Chicago Partner Karie Valentino will present a live webinar hosted by Strafford on July 19 at 1:00 p.m. ET, titled "Nursing Home Defense: Countering the Noncompliance Narrative, Proving Unavoidability, Diffusing Emotional Evidence."  

During the 90-minute program, Ms. Valentino and her fellow presenters will review nursing home litigation defense strategies to counter the plaintiff's theories for frequently alleged injuries, such as pressure sores, falls, malnourishment, medication errors, neglect, or infection. This webinar will help counsel anticipate and curb plaintiffs' discovery and deposition strategies, mount defenses to liability, and navigate the plaintiff's attacks on unavoidability, comorbidities, third-party fault, and failure to thrive.

The program will also address when and how to invoke the Public Readiness and Emergency Preparedness (PREP) Act. CLE credits are available.

Ms. Valentino is a member of Lewis Brisbois’ Long-Term Care & Elder Law, Medical Malpractice, and Healthcare Practices. She has over 25 years of experience defending home healthcare agencies and their staff.
