A 73-year-old male was admitted to the Sunset Nursing Facility with senility, cataracts, and S/P cerebrovascular accident with right-side hemiplegia. On his second day at the facility, the resident was discovered to have extensive thermal burns on his buttocks and legs by one of the facility’s attendants.
Which of the following can the attorney of the resident's family also use as a basis for the lawsuit and why?A. The doctrine of charitable immunity because the nursing facility is a private institution and is shielded from liability for any torts committed on its property.B. The Good Samaritan Statutes because they protect the Director of Nursing, an employee of the nursing facility, who was not present when the injury occurred.C. The doctrine of res ipsa loquitur because it allows the plaintiff to shift the burden of proof to the defendant because direct evidence is available.D. The failure to warn theory because the doctor did not inform the resident's family that the resident was in danger at the nursing facility.
