The depressed women's hotel closed down, and the family sued the hotel for 230 thousand compensation. How to treat this matter from a legal point of view?

Many people don't understand this judgment, because depression is almost recognized as a disease with suicidal behavior. The woman committed suicide after staying in a hotel, which is a place to provide accommodation for guests. Strictly speaking, there is no obligation to manage patients, so many people think the hotel is innocent.

But if you think about it carefully, the hotel does have certain responsibilities, because while providing accommodation, the hotel is also responsible for the personal safety of its guests. In addition to preventing guests' property from being stolen and their personal safety from being threatened, we should also guard against such things. Therefore, the legal judgment can be said to be relatively reasonable.

Of course, hotels should consider the following points if they want to prevent this kind of thing:

1, set the reminder text.

Many hotels have set up some reminders at the hotel counter, which are similar to the disclaimer, that is to say, they can be clearly displayed in front of the counter, so that if there is a problem, from a legal point of view, the hotel will have a certain exemption, even if it is responsible, it will definitely be much lighter than it is now, so this is also a necessary measure.

2. Strengthen safety precautions

In addition, for hotels that commit suicide by jumping off a building, we can also strengthen some preventive measures in daily management and control, such as installing guardrails outside the windows with more than two floors, or making the windows smaller. , are all effective methods. The biggest advantage of this method is that the investment cost is small, but the effect is great. At least, if people with depression want to commit suicide, hotel security personnel can be given a certain reaction time.

3. Strengthen staffing.

Of course, the best way should be to strengthen staffing, but this method is expensive and only suitable for some high-end hotels. Therefore, if most small hotels want to prevent similar things from happening, the above two methods are better, but when necessary, they can actually make security personnel pay more attention to sensitive areas.

Another point should actually be noted, because from an epidemiological point of view, suicidal thoughts and behaviors of patients with severe depression are common, and the family members of patients with depression know the basic situation best, so family members should always pay attention to the patient's movements and should not neglect the management of patients. One of the fundamental reasons for the success of many patients with depression is that their families pay too little attention to him and have not played a good role in prevention and control. Of course, in the early stage of depression, we should also learn to observe some signs.
