85-year-old woman falls under care of home health aide

Our Toledo, Ohio nursing home injury lawyers filed a complaint in the Lucas County Court of Pleas on behalf of an 85-year-old Toledo woman who was injured while receiving home health care assistance by a Toledo healthcare service company.

The Plaintiff required assistance for such things as getting in and out of bed, using the restroom facilities, and bathing. On November 12, 2007, the plaintiff suffered a fall while in the restroom of her home while the healthcare service employees were on duty. The Defendants were aware that the Plaintiff was at-risk for falls. Preventing falls was one of the key reasons the Defendants were hired to assist the Plaintiff. The Defendants breached that duty of care by failing to assist Ms. Coachman in the restroom and take the necessary measures to prevent her fall.

As a direct and proximate cause of the Defendants' breach of duty, the Plaintiff suffered serious permanent personal injuries. More specifically, the Plaintiff broke her leg and was required to undergo hospital and medical care; incurred hospital and medical care costs; incurred great pain, suffering, severe mental anguish, and emotional distress. Further, the Plaintiff believes that these injuries are permanent in nature and will require future medical care; future medical care costs and she will continue to endure great pain, suffering, mental anguish, and emotional distress.
