Family of woman who died on L.A. hospital floor to sue

You can't hardly blame the family at all here with the recorded tape showing all.  This is truly a sad day for the health industry when complacency drives workers to this point and the scary thing is that it could occur anywhere if all conditions were right.  It's truly a very sad learning experience for all.  BD

LOS ANGELES -- The family of a woman who died last month on the floor of an emergency room lobby is planning to take legal action against Martin Luther King Jr.-Harbor Hospital and Los Angeles County.

A letter of intent warning of a wrongful death and medical malpractice lawsuit was sent Wednesday to the county-run hospital and a registered nurse on behalf of the children of Edith Isabel Rodriguez.

Another letter was sent to the county warning of the family's intention to file claims, said the family's attorney, Franklin Casco, Jr.
