Hospital Mistakes — Cleveland Medical Malpractice Lawyers
Although most patients are discharged from the hospital in better condition than when they arrived, for a sad few the opposite occurs. For some of these patients, hospital errors may be to blame for the development of severe complications — or possibly even death. Errors can occur in several different ways.
Nurses are highly trained health professionals charged with tremendous responsibilities in the day-to-day care of patients. When nurses fail to do their jobs properly, patients may not be properly monitored or receive the correct and appropriate dosage of medications. Important deterioration in the patient's condition may also go unreported to the physicians — sometimes with devastating consequences.
Sometimes what appears to be a "hospital error" may not even involve an employee of the hospital. Many routine tests and treatments are performed by contractors. The majority of hospitals contract with private physician groups to provide necessary hospital services, including radiology, pathology, anesthesia and emergency room physicians. In certain situations, the hospital itself may not be responsible for its contractors' actions. Because of the complexity involved in medical malpractice investigations, it is best to seek counsel as soon as you become aware of a problem to maximize your chances of being able to recover.
