When we entrust a nursing home with our loved ones, we expect that they will receive appropriate care and treatment.
Our client’s mother was a resident of a nursing home and was assessed as at a high risk of falling. It was known to the nursing home that our client’s mother had numerous falls when mobilising or attempting to mobilise unassisted.
On 8 March 2020, our client’s mother was subject to a new mobility plan which required that she be physically assisted by staff when mobilising over short distances using a 4-wheel walker. On 10 March 2020, our client’s mother was allowed to mobilise independently without direct support by staff.
On the same day, our client’s mother experienced a fall and suffered a fracture of the neck of the humerus which led to her death shortly after.
GMP Law received supportive opinions from experts who opined that the nursing home breached its duty of care towards our client’s mother by allowing her to mobilise independently. Our experts said that the nursing home was aware of our client’s mother being at risk of falling and should have followed the mobility plan that was put in place.
As a result of witnessing his mother’s unfortunate passing, our client suffered from psychological sequelae including adjustment disorder and an anxious mood. Our client agreed to a settlement in the sum of $120,000 inclusive of legal costs.
