Our Medical Negligence team recently secured £13,500 in compensation for a client who sustained a serious injury while staying in a rehabilitation facility.
Our client had been admitted for support following a period of ill health and was reliant on assistance for safe mobility. Despite this, he was left unattended while attempting to move independently. Without the supervision and support he needed, he fell heavily, suffering a fractured neck of femur.
This injury resulted in considerable pain, surgery, reduced mobility and an extended period of rehabilitation—significantly delaying his overall recovery.
We obtained expert evidence confirming that the fall was entirely preventable and occurred because appropriate risk assessments and safety measures were not in place. The rehabilitation provider accepted liability, and through effective negotiation, we secured a £13,500 settlement to compensate our client for his injuries, pain, suffering and prolonged recovery time.
This outcome reflects our commitment to ensuring vulnerable individuals receive the standard of care they deserve and are properly compensated when that duty is breached.
