OPINION

WINTHROP, Judge.

¶ 1 Rochelle E. Cohen (“Appellant”), individually and in her capacity as the natural surviving parent of Joseph Eichten (“Ei-chten”) and personal representative of his estate, challenges the court’s grant of summary judgment in favor of Maricopa County (“the County”). Appellant argues that the court erred because the County owed a non-delegable duty of care to Eichten, and issues relating to the breach of that duty are a question of fact for a jury. We disagree and affirm the court’s entry of judgment in favor of the County.
