    A Rotorua rest home will go to trial in October - over the death of a resident after a fire

    A Rotorua rest home will go to trial in October - over the death of a resident after a fire


    WorkSafe has brought a charge against Heritage Lifecare, alleging failings with its smoking policy.

    73-year-old Thomas Edward Callaghan died in December 2021.

    He died from critical burns the day after a fire, described as a smoking accident.

    Heritage Lifecare denies the claim it exposed an individual to a risk of serious injury or death.
