Feeding Tube Error Case Resolved for Widow
Gentry Locke for the Plaintiff
A Virginia Circuit Court
Our client’s husband was admitted to a rehabilitation facility for treatment following a stroke. He required feeding through a tube in his stomach. While at the rehabilitation facility, the feeding tube became dislodged and was improperly replaced. This resulted in the tube feedings entering the stomach, ultimately causing the death of our client’s husband.
The case has been resolved for a confidential amount which the Court approved.
