Nine months after going into Beaumont Hospital in Royal Oak, Michigan for a heart catheterization, 74-year-old Rosa Kashat is still there. A lawsuit filed by her family alleges that Kashat fell off a table and suffered a serious head injury and “other sever damage” while she was there. Her son, Safa, says that she also broke her ribs and her hip, and had to have her spleen removed.
Beaumont Hospital has apologized and taken responsibility. In a prepared statement, the hospital regrets the injury and will continue to care for Kashat at no charge. However, the family wants more than free medical care for Kashat. They are working to get the hospital incident report to find out exactly why Kashat fell off the table in the first place.
A court will decide on if this case is malpractice or neglect.
