Fall & Elopement

Our client, an elderly man with cognitive impairments and a history of wandering, was admitted to a skilled nursing facility for rehabilitation and supervision following hospitalization. Despite known risks and multiple prior incidents—including a fall, elopement, and behavioral concerns—the facility failed to implement adequate safety measures or provide consistent monitoring. Days after being placed in a second-story room, he was left unsupervised and fell from a window, sustaining serious and lasting injuries. This case settled confidentially for $600,000.00.
