2018Doe was a resident at Woe Nursing Home and was bed bound. She had a prior pressure sore, which had healed, but placed her at high risk for further skin breakdown. Doe was assessed five months later with a small pressure sore in the same sacral area, and the wound was only the size of a pinpoint. The nursing home neglected this new pressure sore and it deteriorated over the course of less than a month to become a Stage IV and became infected. Doe underwent multiple debridement’s. Doe’s physician ordered several treatments for wound care which were ignored and never done by the nursing facility. As a result she died. Parties settled prior to trial for $375,000.00.
