 The daughter of a Coney Island nursing home resident who was allegedly battered to death by a 95-year-old dementia patient has identified her as a Holocaust survivor.

Nina Kravtsov, 89, was fatally injured after an unidentified Seagate Rehabilitation and Nursing Center resident repeatedly attacked her with a metal wheelchair piece shortly after 10 p.m. Sunday.

Kravstov, who was discovered laying in bed with a bleeding head wound, was taken to NYU Brooklyn Hospital, where she died hours later.


The tragedy comes after the two women getting into an argument NBCNY reported.

‘Right now I’m grieving….the circumstances of how [my mother] died,’ Kravtsov’s daughter, Lucy Flom told the nypost.

Flom remembered her mother as a Holocaust survivor who sacrificed for the good of her loved ones.

‘She was 5-years old when she was in the ghetto. She had a big family. She lost most of her family.’

Kravtsov launched a nursing career in Ukraine, where ‘everybody loved her,’ and she was also a teen mom, her daughter said according to the nypost.

‘She sacrificed a lot,’ Flom said. ‘She was a single mom. She had me when she was 18.

‘She came here to give me a good education,’ she added. ‘She was a very dedicated mother.’

Flom said her mother later remarried as the daughter gained a stepbrother and stepsister.

Kravtsov according to the daughter, also had many friends in Brighton Beach – where she lived for years – some of whom have since passed away. 

‘They all loved her,’ Flom said. ‘I loved her, too.’

Kravtsov moved to the nursing home about 5 years ago after the death of her husband, her former neighbors in Brighton Beach. 

Following the deadly attack, the older senior was taken to Coney Island Hospital for both a physical and psychiatric evaluation, sources said.

The 95-year-old suspect is not currently facing charges because of her cognitive condition, authorities close to the investigation say.

She remained at the hospital Tuesday as cops conferred with the Brooklyn District Attorney’s Office about what – if any – charges she should face.
