In a statement, Life Care Center said: “Our hearts go out to this family and the loss they have suffered during this unprecedented viral outbreak. We are unable to comment on specific legal cases that are pending, but we wish this and all families peace. The loss of any of our residents at Life Care Center of Kirkland is felt deeply by us,” according to television station KING 5.

The nation’s first coronavirus death was at the Kirkland facility in late February, the report said, and since then there have been 129 detected cases and at least 37 deaths, according to the lawsuit.

“Although Defendants were on high alert for COVID-19 since January 2020, they lacked a clear path of action leading to a systemic failure,” the lawsuit says. “Instead of quarantining residents and staff, Defendants admitted new residents and threw a Mardi Gras party.

”The center called de los Angeles early on the morning of March 3, telling her Morin’s fever spiked at 104 degrees,” The Seattle Times reported. They also told her on that call they suspected her mother had contracted the coronavirus, according to the newspaper.

In addition, the center called de los Angeles again later that day, saying Morin was “declining quickly,” The Times reported. De los Angeles asked about the resident physician but staff told her the doctor had not been on-site for weeks, according to The Times.

The next day, facility staff left a voicemail telling de los Angeles her mother had died, according to KING 5.

“On an ongoing basis… Defendants suppressed, concealed, and covered-up material facts…in order to hide from residents such as Twilla Morin, the ongoing danger and threat to residents’ health,” the lawsuit says. “Defendants’ ongoing fraudulent suppression, concealment, and failure to disclose these material facts… was a direct and proximate cause of Twilla Morin’s catastrophic injuries, subsequent complications and ultimate death.”
