Nursing Home Patient Dies From Fall Nine Days After Admission

A nursing home is under investigation after the death of a patient.  The family is speaking about the facility's lack of care and failure to notify of a fall.  The patient died just 9 days after being admitted. 

“She would still be here today had they contacted us,” said the patient's daughter.  “I just don't understand how somebody makes a fall out of the bed … and ends up like that.” The family staff waited hours to contact the family after the fall.  They blamed staff quitting recently for the way the incident was handled.  For more, read the story.
