Peter Mazza, 99, died in June, weeks after none of his aides helped him after he broke bones when he suffered a fall at his Oakwood home. The grandfather to 13 wanted to spend the rest of his days at his home, but was abused by health aides who failed to keep him safe, family members say.
A 99-year-old Staten Island man was still living at home, headed toward his 100th birthday — until hired home health aides “killed my father,” the man’s distraught daughter says.

His family members say aides working for the Nurse Service of New York and Partners in Care were hired to provide round-the-clock care for the ailing, elderly man — but instead the aides were negligent and abusive, leaving the man to fend for himself after one April fall that left the man with fractures and head injuries, the suit claims.
