Our elderly client was admitted to the hospital for cardiac surgery. He became confused and disoriented, and he should have been monitored or placed in a wheelchair with an alarm so that staff would be warned if he tried to get up. Instead, he was given a chair without an alarm, and was left unmonitored. He fell when he tried to rise, suffering a head injury that led to his death. Attorney Cory Ford of WilliamsFord and his co-counsel in this case negotiated a wrongful death settlement that avoided putting the family through the stress and risk of a trial.
