Medical Errors Lawyer

Medical mistakes happen. They often have serious consequences for injured patients. While medical practitioners aim for excellence, errors are always possible. It’s essential for patients to be aware of their rights and the options available for seeking compensation.

What are medical errors?

Medical errors refer to preventable mistakes or oversights that occur during medical treatment or healthcare delivery resulting in adverse outcomes for patients. These errors can occur at any stage of the healthcare process, from diagnosis and treatment to medication administration and post-operative care. Examples of medical errors include misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis, medication errors, surgical mistakes, infections acquired in healthcare settings, communication errors between healthcare providers and equipment failures. Medical errors can have serious consequences, ranging from temporary harm to permanent disability or death. They are a significant concern in healthcare systems worldwide, prompting efforts to improve patient safety and reduce the incidence of preventable harm.

Patient Legal Rights

If medical mistakes happen because of negligence or a failure to meet the standard of care, patients may file medical malpractice claims against healthcare providers. These claims seek to hold medical professionals responsible for their conduct.
