Home Health Care Negligence

$180,000 Settlement Obtained for Negligent Care of Elderly Woman

An 84 year old woman was under the care of a home health aide, who failed to follow the family’s instructions for the woman’s care and transport. As a result, the elderly woman was caused to fall from a wheelchair in her home, and sustain serious injuries, leading to her death. The Law Office of Daniel J. Moynihan brought suit on behalf of her surviving husband and children, and on the day of closing arguments during the trial, obtained a $180,000 settlement for her surviving heirs.
