In a civil lawsuit against the parent company, Atria Senior Living, the son of 94-year-old Constantine Canoun included a photo of the chemical bottle from which he says his father drank shortly before being rushed to the hospital.
In the suit filed last month, Canoun’s son said a staff member at Atria Walnut Creek “showed him the bottle of Ecolab 14 Plus Antibacterial All Purpose Cleaner” when he went to the facility to find out why his father was taken to the hospital. The son contends the staff member told him a worker left out the cleaning fluid and his father, a dementia resident, drank some of it causing “distress with burns in his mouth.” Canoun died days later.
The Investigative Unit’s initial reporting on this incident prompted an investigation by the Walnut Creek Police Department. Police say they are still investigating the case and are awaiting Canoun’s autopsy report. Atria Senior Living denied our team’s request for an interview but sent a statement saying in part “…we await the official cause of death. Our residents will always be our top priority. We devote significant resources to ensure our staff are thoroughly trained and able to meet our residents’ needs at all times.”
