At the time, Ella Kitts had already
been at Lewis-Gale Medical Center for
more than a hundred days. Once she was
stable, the hospital told the family
she should be moved to a skilled
nursing facility. Plus her medicare
benefits were running out.

Lewis-Gale says there wasn't any
place nearby that could care for her
because she was on a ventalitor and
dialysis. But hospital officials say

this isn't an isolated incident.
