Representative Matters

Substantial Damages Received After Preventable Fall in Hospital

A Claimant received substantial damages after sustaining bilateral humeral fractures which required surgical intervention.

The Claimant was a vulnerable patient who had attended hospital for a minor operation. Whilst under the hospital’s care and despite specific warnings by the Claimant’s family, the Claimant fell, sustaining serious injuries.

We argued on the Claimant’s behalf that in view of his medical history, which included respiratory difficulties and short term memory problems, the injuries were both foreseeable and preventable.

We highlighted the fact that the nurses involved in his care had failed to undertake a risk of falls assessment or identify and document suitable interventions to reduce the likelihood of falling.

Additionally we brought to light the fact that the nurses failed to ensure the Claimant had frequent levels of observation and close monitoring to reduce the risk of the injury occurring.

The Defendants admitted liability and we negotiated an out of Court settlement. The settlement incorporated damages for the pain, suffering and loss of amenity, past care and future care requirements.
