Saskatchewan's Ombudsman has released an update on progress made by the Santa Maria Senior Citizens Home, six months after recommending 19 provincial changes in the wake of the death of resident Margaret Warholm in 2014.

The provincial ombudsman says there were several instances where the system failed a 74-year-old woman, who became malnourished, developed large bed sores and eventually died after living in a Regina care home.

The family of Margaret Warholm is looking for a lawyer who will take legal action against Santa Maria Senior Citizens Home.
