Our client, an 86-year-old man, was discharged from a hospital to a residential care facility, despite medical recommendations for skilled nursing. The facility was not equipped to meet his needs and failed to provide appropriate care. To avoid transferring him to a higher level of care, the facility coordinated with a hospice agency to enroll him under false pretenses. Over the following weeks, he developed multiple unreported pressure wounds, suffered severe malnutrition, dehydration, and infections, and became bedbound and overmedicated. He was later hospitalized in critical condition and died months later from the compounded effects of neglect. This case settled confidentially for $730,000.00.
