Cardinal Nursing and Rehabilitation is facing over $10,000 in fines for masks and failing to report a COVID death.

The State of Indiana says Cardinal Nursing required employees to wear N-95 masks without first doing a medical evaluation to determine an employees’ ability to wear a respirator.

The facility was also cited for failing to test if the N-95 masks even fit properly.

Cardinal is also accused of failing to report a COVID-19 death in October, and failing to report in a timely manner a COVID patient hospitalization in August.
