A Riverside hospital has been accused of several health violations, including maggots being found in cafeteria food and a patient’s nose.

Healthcare workers with SEIU-UHW filed a complaint Monday with the California Department of Public Health, alleging Parkview Community Hospital was operating in unsafe and unsanitary conditions.

“Management at Parkview Community Hospital is undermining the facility to the point where it’s a struggle to safely care for patients,” hospital employee Willie Conley said in a union statement.

“We have expressed a number of concerns and we believe the public should understand what’s going on behind the hospital’s doors so corrective action can quickly be taken,” the statement continued.
