Carter said on top of horrible conditions, a staff member allegedly had sex with her son.

A complaint filed with the Ohio Department of Health outlines the allegations of sexual assault.

“It’s just repulsive. It just continues and nobody does nothing. I would be embarrassed if this was my position and a family member was coming in and cleaning up,” Carter said.

In a statement, management for the nursing home said:
