Medical Negligence occurs when a healthcare professional, such as a doctor nurse or dentist fails to provide appropriate treatment, management and/or or care to a patient, by way of an omission or a negligent act resulting in harm, injury or death of a person. It can take many forms, including misdiagnosis, surgical errors, medication errors, and failure to diagnose a condition and sometimes even death.
Typically, patients who have suffered harm due to medical negligence can claim against the healthcare professional or institution (public or private) responsible for the alleged malpractice.
To succeed with a potential claim for medical negligence, you will need to prove that the healthcare professional or institution breached their duty of care to you and that this breach directly caused harm or injury to the person or the minor as a result of the malpractice.
It's important to note that medical negligence cases can be complex and time-consuming.
It's advisable to seek the help of reputable Personal Injury Attorneys with an expertise in handling medical negligence claims.
