Large Bed Sore Causes Elderly Woman's Death
An elderly woman developed a large bed sore while residing in a residential care facility. Because of inadequate treatment, the skin wound worsened and the elderly resident died only 10 days after being sent to a hospital for proper wound care. Walton Barber represents the woman's family in prosecuting the assisted living facility for failure to provide adequate wound care and treatment.
