What Is Hospital Negligence?
Hospital negligence refers to actions or decisions made by a doctor or a health care provider that fall short of the accepted standard of care, which often leads to additional harm to a patient. To put it simply, it is when a patient suffers from a preventable injury under a hospital’s care.
Some common examples include:
- Prescribing the wrong drug or dosage or administering medication incorrectly
- Operating on the wrong body part, leaving instruments inside a patient or causing damage to nerves or organs during surgery
- Administering too much or too little anesthesia, failing to monitor a patient’s vital signs during anesthesia or failing to properly prepare a patient for anesthesia
- Misdiagnosing conditions, delays in treatment or prematurely discharging patients from the ER
- Failing to accurately identify a condition or delaying a diagnosis, leading to a worsened prognosis
- Negligence in sanitation or patient care leading to serious hospital-acquired infections
If you have experienced any of these situations or have a reason to believe your injuries are a direct result of hospital negligence, consider filing a claim. A successful claim can help cover extensive medical expenses and any lost income from spending time away from work to recover. It may also cover any significant pain and suffering you have endured.
It’s important to note that pursuing a hospital negligence claim demands comprehensive and substantial evidence. This can include medical records, witness testimony from medical professionals and thorough documentation of how the injury has impacted your life. Our Evans hospital negligence attorneys help you collect and present this critical information in a compelling claim.
