DES MOINES, Iowa — A continuing care home in suburban Des Moines, Iowa, has been fined $10,000 after a funeral home discovered a woman sent to it in a body bag was still alive.
She was placed in a zipped body bag and taken to the Ankeny Funeral Home & Crematory, where workers found that she was breathing and called 911, the report said. The nurse practitioner who had cared for the woman throughout the night also was unable to find a pulse and said the woman was not breathing. She continued to assess the woman for about five minutes before determining the woman had died.
Lisa Eastman, executive director of the Glen Oaks Alzheimer's Special Care Center, said in a statement that the center cares deeply about its residents and remains committed to supporting end-of-life care.
