Dalton Foster, by and through his guardian and next friend, Joseph Foster, filed a complaint in Logan Circuit Court against Genesis Eldercare Rehabilitation Services LLC, Genesis Healthcare LLC, Genesis Hospitality Services LLC, et al. alleging medical malpractice in causing Dalton Foster to suffer further injuries.

According to the complaint, between Nov. 18, 2016- June 8, 2017, Dalton Foster received medical care and treatment at the defendants' Logan Center after suffering a drug overdose. 

However, the suit says, Foster's rehabilitation was not complete as his drug overdose has been compromised due to the defendants' negligent care and treatment.
