Las Vegas nursing home to close, faces lawsuit

Tuesday, Aug. 14, 2001 | 10:56 a.m.

A Las Vegas employment agency sued to appoint a receiver for Las Vegas Care Centers Inc. doing business as the Manor, a nursing home that plans to close because of financial difficulties.

Healthpro Staffing LLC, which said it agreed on Feb. 27 to provide substitute or temporary staff to the Manor, sued the 225-bed nursing home at 8501 Del Webb Blvd. in Clark County District Court. The Manor is accused of failing to pay $117,220 for temporary staffing services.

Tom Feeback, the Manor's administrator, declined comment on the lawsuit.

But he said the nursing home will close Sept. 7 because of "unresolvable financial issues." Feeback, in a statement, said the Manor has spent more than a year "exploring alternative solutions, from obtaining additional funding from commercial and private sources to a potential sale or lease of the (nursing home.)"

But Feeback said the Manor's efforts were unsuccessful and it has started discharging patients.
