The preliminary hearing for former Wildwood Senior Living employee Takeshia Moore, 45, Joplin, who is charged with assaulting a 77-year-old resident October 1, is scheduled for Thursday in Jasper County Circuit Court.

 According to the probable cause statement, Moore, 45, a Level I medication aide, abused a 77-year-old resident who was in Wildwood's memory care unit to a diagnosis of dementia by shoving him, causing him to fall and suffer hip and femur fractures. 







After that, the resident's health rapidly deteriorated and he died January 21.

Don't understand why the state of Missouri has not flagged her license yet? She could literally get another job in one of the nursing homes and do this again if the state doesn't flag her.

They need to do a deep background check on Takeshia Moore. Has she committed these similar crimes at other Nursing Homes / Rehab Centers? The Prosecuting Attorneys Office and their Investigators need to look back through her Employment Records and see if they turn up a Past Elder Abuse Crimes - - or Other Incidents at these Facilities or in her Past - - Hopefully they Examine her Past Closely and do and Indepth Search.

Someone had mentioned that she he worked at Joplin Health and Rehab Center - Being that I have Friends that are Residents at that are at that Facility - I asked but the Staff has been Silenced and said that they could not comment on any Current and Past Employees.

Which makes me question - Are these Facilities trying to Cover-Up their Failure to Protect the Residents - because of Potential Liabilities and Lawsuits.
