AARP joins Ventura Class Action Lawsuit

The Ventura County Star did a nice article today about AARP Legal Foundation joining the Class Action lawsuit Jody Moore and I filed in Ventura County.

As the article points out, and Dr. Proffett admits, the practice of providing drugs to patients without permission or consent was rampant for years.  We are actively seeking witnesses as well as potential Class Representatives to this practice from any of the nursing homes in Ventura County in the last three years.

If you know anyone who was prescribed behavioral medications in a Ventura County Nursing Home in the last three years, please encourage them to call me.  Dr. Proffett says he has stopped this dangerous (and illegal) practice, but we don't yet know the full scope of the problem.
