Two 93-year-old men died at the same company-owned facility in San Mateo County four days earlier.

A man who died at a senior care facility in Walnut Creek last year accidentally drank a poisonous liquid, according to an autopsy report from the Contra Costa County Coroner’s Office.

The final report on the death of 94-year-old Constantine Canoun said his Aug. 31, 2022, death was caused by “a caustic injury to [his] pharynx, esophagus and stomach” that was caused by an “ingestion of akaline cleaning solution.”that happened in similar fashion. Those deaths also happened at a facility owned by Kentucky-based Atria Senior Living.A lawsuit filed in San Mateo County Superior Court last September by the family of Maxwell and Peter Schroder Jr.

Canoun died at a Walnut Creek hospital eight days after drinking the fluid. The lawsuit claims that the company lied to Canoun’s family, claiming he had become ill after eating “spicy chips.” “That was an attempt to cover up Atria’s liability,” the lawsuit claims. “Constantine had suffered extreme burns and lesions to his throat, esophagus, and larynx. Those injuries were consistent with having ingested a poisonous liquid.”

The suit claims Atria “did nothing” to inform any of its staff or facilities about the death in Walnut Creek.
