Details

This book covers ground hoping to illuminate care of the elderly during times of the Covid-19 pandemic and malpractice of those responsible for their care. It is a legal text exploring personal injury and clinical negligence claims, so it addresses the law and procedure but also delves into the background of Covid and the wider investigations into decisions made by government to manage public safety, specifically the compromised elderly.

These are still ongoing in the guise of the Covid Public Inquiry. When the Chair finalises her report sometime in 2026 much will be learnt about the failures (and successes) of decision makers charged with public health. It has resonance for a claim and therefore features in a chapter.

Covid was devastating for many people and its impact will remain for many years. But the most vulnerable sector must be the elderly in care homes. They were not always well served. This book is commended to practitioners, law students and affected families tarnished by the pandemic.
