EFFINGHAM — The Occupational Safety and Health Administration has issued Lakeview NeuroRehabilitation Center a citation for allegedly exposing employees to aggressive clients who physically assault them. Lakeview is contesting OSHA.
According to OSHA, employees are "exposed to physical abuse while working with abusive patients by themselves." The citation is based on an inspection conducted between Dec. 6 and May 20. The inspection was a result of a complaint that was brought forward by former Lakeview employee Nancylee Berman who had been a teacher's assistant at Lakeview for about three months.
