PITTSBURGH - A former employee for InVision, which operates a residence for intellectually disabled individuals in Pittsburgh, says she was fired reporting others sleeping on the job, plus other issues.
InVision Human Services, a Pennsylvania-based organization, is facing a lawsuit filed Feb. 5 by Roberta Yearwood. The case was filed in the Court of Common Pleas of Allegheny County by Yearwood's attorney, Joshua P. Ward from J.P. Ward & Associates.
InVision operates a residence for the intellectually disabled and hired Yearwood in January 2023 as a program supervisor. About seven months later, she made complaints to the human resources department.
Those complaints included employees sleeping on the job, medications being late and a client who went 24 hours without eating.
Yearwood says she was fired the very next day. She seeks damages under the Pennsylvania Whistleblower Law and the Adult Protective Services Act.
