A New York Times investigation revealed that the rating system is flawed, allowing the opportunity for many nursing homes (including Brookdale) to submit manipulated data to the government, thus inflating ratings of the quality of care in their facilities. The state of California filed a lawsuit against Brookdale in March 2021, alleging that the company manipulated the federal governmentвЂ™s nursing-home ratings system. The Bayless family said it had no intention of suing Brookdale over Lorraine's death. Police closed the Glenwood investigation without filing any criminal charges. Brookdale later reversed its public position, saying that the staff member had misinterpreted the CPR policy. ДЄfter Bayless's death, Brookdale cited a policy to reporters that allegedly prohibited staff members performing CPR on residents of its independent living facilities however, the spokesman did not provide copies of the policy to reporters. In 2013, a Brookdale facility, Glenwood Gardens in Bakersfield, California, became the focus of national media coverage when a staff member refused to give CPR, as requested by a 911 operator, to 87-year-old Lorraine Bayless, a resident. In July 2014, Brookdale merged with Emeritus Senior Living and became the only national full-spectrum senior living company, with over 1,100 communities in 46 states and covering 80% of the U.S. After the ARC merger, Brookdale was operating approximately 550 communities in 36 states. Fortress saw this as an opportunity to put Brookdale at the forefront of senior living, not just by sheer size but with the marrying of two of the longest-running and most successful companies in the industry. ARC operated approximately 130 properties. Brookdale merged with the American Retirement Corporation (ARC Therapy) in July 2006. During this time Fortress Investments acquired the recently bankrupt Alterra Corporation's 300 properties. The new communities included Continuous Care Retirement Communities (CCRC), which house skilled nursing facilities, assisted living, independent living, and memory care facilities.Д«y 2005, Brookdale had grown to approximately 90 standalone properties. The early communities replicated five-star hotels like the Hyatt, Marriott's, and Hilton hotels of the modern era.ДЇrom the late 1990s to mid-2000s, Brookdale developed more communities that resembled earlier models, but also reflected changing retirement trends. When Brookdale was established, it developed large upscale urban retirement communities in cities such as Chicago, New York, and Miami. Д«rookdale's headquarters remains in Nashville, but a recent acquisition has made Milwaukee, Wisconsin their second largest office. Shortly thereafter, the state of California filed a lawsuit against Brooksdale, alleging that the company manipulated the federal governmentвЂ™s nursing-home ratings system. In 2021, a New York Times investigation revealed that Brooksdale submitted wrong and manipulated data to the government, thus inflating ratings of the quality of care in Brooksdale facilities.
