HE CHECKED into a nursing home for some rest and recovery, but he got neither.

Mr Kelvin Tan, who is in his late 40s and is wheelchair-bound, claimed he has been verbally and even physically abused by fellow residents at the Orange Valley Nursing Home at Clementi.

He alleged a fellow resident hit him with a portable electric fan.

Another threatened to poison him, he claimed.
