Boca Raton police say investigators are looking into a suspicious death at ManorCare Health Services on Yamato Road.
It began after officers answered a call at Boca Raton Regional Hospital to speak with medical personnel who had transferred a male patient who had died.
Police say the man was found on the floor next to his bed in his room at the health services center by staff members.
