Many people visit a CVS when they don’t feel well. You can pick up a prescription and over-the-counter medicine at a CVS, as well as a variety of products that can be used around the home. However, shopping at a CVS can be dangerous if property owners allow hazards to develop on the property.
There are a few common areas where slip and fall accidents can occur. You could easily slip and fall in an area that:
- Is improperly or poorly lit.
- Is wet after being mopped or cleaned.
- Is wet due to rainy weather conditions outside.
- Has something spilled?
The property owners of the CVS have a responsibility to quickly address these hazards. Spills and slick spots should be cleaned up quickly. If a property owner cannot resolve a hazard in a timely fashion, they are required to put up warnings so that customers are not injured.
