Lawsuit Filed Against Chicago Company for Mandating the Vaccination of West Virginia Employees

Today we filed suit against Enlivant, a Chicago company who owns and operates an assisted living facility in Greenbrier County, West Virginia operating as Seasons Place Assisted Living. On June 1, 2021 they terminated my client, Stephanie McCutcheon, for refusing to take an unapproved non-mandatory vaccine for COVID-19.

This is the letter Stephanie received from the Human Resources Director in Chicago after complaining about the company’s verbal vaccine mandate. As you can see, knowing it was a violation of federal law to mandate the vaccine, they attempted to frame her termination as a resignation.

Given that it appears to be a form letter, they have apparently done this to other employees. They have assisted living facilities in numerous states.

Live in harmony with one another; do not be haughty, but associate with the lowly, do not claim to be wiser than you are.  Do not repay anyone evil for evil, but take thought for what is noble in the sight of all.  If it is possible, so far as it depends on you, live peaceably with all…do not be overcome by evil, but overcome evil with good.

LEWISBURG – A Greenbrier County woman has sued a Chicago-based assisted living facility operator after she was fired for refusing to take a COVID-19 vaccine.

Stephanie McCutcheon filed her lawsuit June 3 in Greenbrier Circuit Court against Enlivant ES, which owns and operates Seasons Place Assisted Living in Lewisburg.

According to her complaint, McCutcheon was fired June 1 for refusing to take a COVID vaccine. She says she worked at the facility for five years.

She says Sherry Shires, the facility’s executive director, tried to convince McCutcheon to get the vaccine by falsely saying the vaccine was approved by the FDA and that it was safe. ...

The 22-page complaint includes information how the vaccines are not approved by the FDA, but rather approved for emergency use. It also details the timeline of “The Rush To Find An Experimental COVID-19 Vaccine,” and it lists “serious health concerns” about the vaccines. ...
