It is not unusual that someone you know or knew of passes away, either from old age or from having to fight the good fight against a lengthy illness. When you go to the funeral at the cemetery, you are also at risk of falling down and slipping on the earth that is disturbed by the process of the funeral and burial. At a burial site, there will be disturbed grass, mounds of dirt and even an exposed hole in the ground. When there are also tools for digging left out in the open by the grave diggers, then there will be a high risk that someone will slip and fall on those instruments and sustain a serious injury. <\/p>\nWhy Do People Slip, Trip and Fall at a Cemetery?<\/span>\n

The reason that people slip and trip or even fall at the cemetery, is because the earth is always being completely moved around and disturbed to create funeral and burial plots. If a person is buried in a coffin, pine casket or participates in a \u201cgreen burial\u201d where the person who died is covered in a cloth shroud or put into a pine casket with holes on the ground, then there will be earthen areas that are exposed where a person can fall<\/a> down into and get hurt. When a tree in the area has the soil under the tree exposed to find a new place for burying the dead, oftentimes there will be uprooted roots of the tree, and other debris from the soil that can cause a tripping hazard. Many times the grave diggers leave tools around, or worse yet, they cover up a hole improperly, which can cause a serious tripping and falling hazard for anyone attending final resting place<\/a> services at the grave site. <\/p>\n<\/div>\n

Who Is Ultimately Responsible for Maintaining a Grave Site?<\/span><\/p>\n

The owner of the cemetery is responsible for maintaining the grave sites at that location. If there is a public cemetery, then the municipality responsible for the area of the grave site is going to be held obligated to safely maintain the property. The cemetery should be maintained by the owners and maintenance or grounds department or persons responsible to keep the area clean and safe for mourners and employees of the cemetery as well. Besides loved ones who visit a cemetery, there are also employees who can be injured at the cemetery, because of holes, roots or other disturbances in the grounds that can cause a serious slipping, falling and tripping hazard.<\/p>\n

Why Do Misplaced Headstones, Grave Stones, and Grave Markers Cause Serious Personal Injuries to People Visiting a Cemetery?<\/span><\/p>\n

Most people only go to a grave site occasionally when paying respects to a loved one who died. For this reason, if you are walking in a cemetery, you may not notice that the ground is displaced or that there are new sink holes in the terrain. You will be much more susceptible to falling down in a hole, or tripping over an errantly placed grave marker or grave stone, which was carelessly left by a cemetery grounds worker on the grass or turf.
