PITTSBURGH – A Pittsburgh care facility denies it wrongfully terminated a certified nursing assistant who claims she was exposed to COVID-19 and requested to quarantine for 14 days but was instead fired.
Za’Tayah Ballard of Pittsburgh first filed suit in the Allegheny County Court of Common Pleas on Oct. 30 versus Highland Park Care Center, LLC, also of Pittsburgh.
The suit began with the appearance of COVID-19 and the subsequent issuance of emergency orders that followed from Pennsylvania state officials. Because of the nature of COVID-19 and the high risk to patients, the Center for Disease Control recommended that any health care provider exposed to COVID-19 without personal protective equipment “be excluded from work for 14 days.”
