    I would need a lot more facts. Did your dad have a tendency to roll off beds? Could your dad raise and lower the rails himself? Did the home have a reason to believe that your dad may roll out of bed?

    The reality is that bad things sometimes happen, but that does not mean that somebody else is to blame. I have been hospitalized a few times in my life, and they never put up the bed rails for me. Of course, I don't have bed rails on my bed at home.

    So long story short, it is certainly possible that there negligence here, but you would need a lot more facts.
