养老机构安全管理不到位致老人中毒身亡，需承担连带责任
近日，一起涉及养老机构安全保护义务的案件引起社会广泛关注。潘某某入住某养老院，因居住环境中存在的安全隐患导致不幸去世。
据悉，潘某某所居住的养老院房间位于三楼，房间内安装的烟囱管道与窗户距离过近。某日清晨，护理员在巡查时发现异常，立即将潘某某送往医院救治。然而，经过紧急治疗，潘某某仍因一氧化碳中毒不幸离世。
经过调查，养老机构的安全管理存在严重问题。其未能采取有效措施确保居住环境的通风安全，导致老人因吸入有害气体而中毒。因此，养老机构不仅未能履行安全保护义务，还须对潘某某的不幸离世承担连带责任。
该案件提醒广大养老机构应加强对居住环境的改善和安全管理。政府部门也应对养老机构的运营进行严格监管，确保老年人的生命安全和身体健康。同时，社会各界应关注养老机构的运营状况，共同推动养老服务业健康发展。

Keywords: Elder care institution, safety responsibility, carbon monoxide poisoning
News Content:
An elderly person has died from carbon monoxide poisoning due to inadequate safety management at an elder care institution, which must bear joint and several liabilities.
Recently, a case involving the safety obligations of elder care institutions has attracted widespread attention in society. Mr. Pan, who was staying at a certain nursing home, passed away tragically due to hidden dangers in his living environment.
It is reported that the room of the nursing home where Mr. Pan stayed was located on the third floor. The distance between the installed chimney pipe and the window was too close. One morning, a caregiver found abnormalities during inspection and immediately sent Mr. Pan to the hospital for treatment. However, despite emergency treatment, Mr. Pan passed away due to carbon monoxide poisoning.
After investigation, it was found that the safety management of the elderly care institution had serious problems. It failed to take effective measures to ensure the ventilation safety of the living environment, resulting in the elderly man’s poisoning by inhaling harmful gases. Therefore, not only did the institution fail to fulfill its safety protection obligations, it must also bear joint and several liabilities for Mr. Pan’s unfortunate death.
This case reminds elder care institutions to strengthen the improvement of living environment and safety management. Government departments should also strictly supervise the operation of elder care institutions to ensure the life safety and physical health of the elderly. Meanwhile, all sectors of society should pay attention to the operating conditions of elder care institutions and jointly promote the healthy development of the elderly care service industry.
