Episode Details

A Florida memory care facility, The Waverly, has filed for bankruptcy just weeks after being ordered to pay a family $1.5 million for the death of their mother, who suffered fatal injuries after just 12 hours there. The facility also faces fresh scrutiny over a resident who froze to death in a walk-in freezer. The family’s attorney says the facility is underinsured, making recovery of the judgment unlikely. This tragedy echoes another devastating case where an 83-year-old with dementia wandered off and died of hypothermia. A state ombudsman has been appointed to oversee care for current residents amid the chaos.
