The Pennsylvania Office of Attorney General on Thursday charged a licensed practical nurse with involuntary manslaughter in the April 13 death of Herbert R. McMaster Sr. in the nursing home at Cathedral Village, in the Upper Roxborough section of Philadelphia.
Christann S. Gainey, 30, was also charged with neglect of a care-dependent person and tampering with records for allegedly failing to provide appropriate care to McMaster, the father of former national security adviser H.R. McMaster Jr., after he fell in his room and hit his head, according to an eight-page criminal complaint.

So glad my father went before he needed nursing home help! God was that good.
Agree. You hope and trust your parent is being well taken care of.
I still have my 91 year old mom at home with me. Hopefully she never has to go somewhere for care.
That’s very nice! My mom had to go into a facility that is run by Polish nuns. It’s a wonderful place but I was there every day just to check.
Care for the infirm elderly is not arranged well in the U.S. if you don’t have lots of money to be able to afford 24-hour in-home nursing care or to place the relative in a high quality, reputable facility. Yet even this man, whose son is well known and probably has money, didn’t get good care. It looks like a nice place, too.
This is clearly the workings of Trump. See since Trump and McMaster Jr. didn’t get along Trump had a Russian pay off the nurse to kill of McMaster Sr.
I was expecting the place to be run by one of those large impersonal for-profit SNF corporations, but that does not seem to be the case here.
Neglect, especially in overnight hours, causes this to happen a lot. People are
so scared of future neglect to others, they often extend thanks to the staff of
nursing homes in the obituaries. While most of the staff may be conscientious,
all it take is one ore two morally corrupt individuals to ruin the lives of the
patient/residents and their relatives. I have often wondered if two of my
relatives were killed of by these people, one by a fall that manifested brain
swelling at a later date and another by neglect or improper medication/overdose
of someone who was expected to live 3 more months. Not the best class of
people are drawn to this occupation.
Yep.
My Dad had a massive stroke in ‘78 after they attempted surgery to remove a lobe of his lung due to cancer. The day the hospital was going to move him to their adjoining nursing home, he died. Quite a blessing.
Yes. So sorry for your loss.
Ping!
I went through over twenty news articles looking for a photo of this woman. I thought it was odd that there was no photo. I wonder why.
I’m sorry for your loss too. I’m the last one left from my family. My last sibling died in 2014 at the age of 74. She was the oldest of the four kids, and so far, lived the longest than anyone in my immediate family. I was the baby, and I’ll be 71 this year.
I don't understand it either. She has such a happy, smiling face like our Forever First Lady Moochie.
Surveillance video showed that Gainey failed to conduct a series of neurological evaluations of McMaster as required, the Pennsylvania attorney general’s office said. Prosecutors say she falsified documents to make it appear she had.
What a despicable POS.

Only alledged and guilty whities get a photo splash.
What a conincidence! I found it on the website of a small local weekly in that vicinity. None of the big papers or TV stations posted it.
That is so sad.
