Case Details
Verdict entered against a nursing home for negligence. A 77-year-old resident developed severe pressure ulcers due to lack of proper medical care, leading to amputation of both legs and a colostomy. Medical records showed staff failed to turn and reposition him, and no medical assessment of wounds for weeks.
Additional Notes
Verdict by Judge. Nursing home's expert conceded turning/repositioning should be every two hours and a single lapse could lead to pressure ulcer.
