TOLEDO, Ohio — The Department of Justice announced Tuesday it has filed a lawsuit against Toledo-based ProMedica and several of its affiliates, alleging that four nursing homes under its control provided "non-existent, grossly substandard" care to residents.

The complaint, filed in the U.S. District Court for the Eastern District of Pennsylvania under the False Claims Act, accuses ProMedica and its entities, including HCR ManorCare Inc., of violating the False Claims Act. Federal officials say the nursing homes failed to meet required standards of care under the Nursing Home Reform Act between 2017 and 2023.

The nursing homes named in the lawsuit are:

ProMedica Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation – Pottstown (Pennsylvania)

ProMedica Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation – Riverview (Ohio)
