Chani Begum, aged 81, of Nelson Street, Bedford, had been looked after by her family. Her daughter-in-law was her main carer, an inquest at Ampthill heard last week.
She was admitted to Bedford Hospital following the fall on September 27, with a suspected broken hip.
But doctors felt she was too ill to be able to withstand surgery. She died on October 4.
Cause of death was community acquired pneumonia and dehydration.
