Home Health Care

Claims Example:
A home health care professional was visiting an at-home client. The client fell while the caregiver was assisting the client to access and negotiate the use of the restroom. The caregiver reportedly was positioning a wheelchair for the client; the client stood up from using the restroom, lost balance and subsequently fell to the floor. The client sustained a serious hip fracture and now required around the clock care. Indemnity paid $187,329. Defense costs paid $33,563.
