I am old enough to remember facilities discharging elderly patients in hospital gowns & leaving them at bus stops.
Perhaps they will investigate if/when she exceeded the Medicare/MediCaid funding limit?
This seems to happen more frequently than it used to or maybe it’s just being reported more often? Don’t they check for a pulse before calling the funeral home?
This is why I train staff and students to use multiple methods to confirm death. It can be a challenge to determine that death has occurred in the immediate term, even for your own species. I’m a veterinarian. We get more “miraculous” recoveries (see not dead) patients than most people know.

They should put garlic in her pillow just to be safe
