The suit alleges that Westview of Derby failed to properly care for Barbara Ann Bennett after she slipped out of her recliner in January 2018 and hit her leg on a wheelchair. The Wichita Eagle reports that despite swelling and bruising, she didn’t receive antibiotics until almost a month later, after she fell again. The suit also alleges that the facility failed to send her to a wound clinic for treatment as her condition worsened.
She died in March, and the state took over the facility in September due to insolvency. An attorney for LSL of Derby, a limited liability company named in the lawsuit, declined to comment.
