NYC nursing home resident beaten to death by 95-year-old dementia patient ID'd as Holocaust survivor Nina Kravtsov
""I was devastated," daughter Lucy Flom told The Post. "My friends are saying they can't believe it because it only happens in movies. "Right now I'm grieving....the circumstances of how [my mother] died," Flom, who lives in Florida, said. "I said, OK, they took her to the hospital. They are going to stabilize her. She was in the trauma unit. I didn't expect this outcome that she'd die.""
""She was 5-years old when she was in the ghetto," Flom said. "She had a big family. She lost most of her family.""
""She sacrificed a lot. She was a single mom. She had me when she was 18," Flom said. "She came here to give me a good education," she added. "She was a very dedicated mother." "She was a nice lady. She was like many moms - very loving, caring, devoted." "She was a mom to all of us," Flom said. "We are just grieving.""
Nina Kravtsov, 89, was mortally injured just after 10 p.m. Sunday at Seagate Rehabilitation and Nursing Center when a fellow resident allegedly struck her with a metal wheelchair piece. Staff found her lying in bed with a bleeding head wound and she was rushed to NYU Brooklyn Hospital in critical condition; she died early Monday from her injuries. Daughter Lucy Flom described intense grief and shock, recounting attempts to stabilize her mother at the hospital. Kravtsov was a Holocaust survivor from Ukraine, a former nurse, a teen mother who sacrificed for her family, and is mourned by children and step-siblings.
