Superstorm Nursing Homes

FILE - This file photo of Dec. 24, 2012, shows the Bishop Henry B. Hucles Episcopal Rehabilitation and Skilled Nursing Center in New York. The facility, located in the Bedford Stuyvesant section of Brooklyn, was swollen to nearly double its licensed capacity by elderly and disabled New Yorkers it took in after they were evacuated from seaside nursing homes and assisted living residences following Superstorm Sandy. The nursing home and an assisted living facility are under scrutiny by state officials and advocacy groups after revelations that residents forced to evacuate by Hurricane Sandy were still living in cramped, and sometimes oppressive temporary quarters two months after the storm.
