The family lost their relative in a horrible excruciating manner of death. If there are no consequences it will happen over and over again. While it isn’t always about monetary loss the only way to make a business pay for their horrendous mistake is to hurt them financially. You can’t put a nursing home in jail but you can make them think about having to pay a huge award again in the future.

Whether you 9 or 99 pain is pain, suffering is suffering and when you pay $1000.00 a week for care pain and suffering like she went through is unacceptable. Someone should pay.

They always had to take a smoke break

I had a few family member that died in ICU my question is how does one in a coma mode get bruises and cuts when I visited them most of the time the nurses were yacking in the main room.

It’s cold to ask, but what exactly are the family’s financial losses in this case? The family went from paying maybe $4,000 per month for the nursing home, to paying a similar monthly expense to a law firm.

The lawsuit also serves to make sure other homes don't act this negligently. The family also had pain and suffering. And the woman may have had a long-term care policy, or investments to pay her way and leave some for her descendants.

But I wasn’t. 97 years old would be my parents’ generation.
