When Does Medical Negligence Occur?
Medical negligence occurs when a medical practitioner acts in a negligent manner at the time of treating a patient. It can either occur from an action the practitioner takes or it can occur due to the failure of the practitioner to take a proper action. Some of the common examples of medical negligence include:
- misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose a condition or disease
- failure or delay in providing treatment for a particular condition
- error in anaesthesia
- medication errors
- Failure to respond to emergency alarms
- Wrong treatment
Doctors, nurses, technicians as well as all those professionals associated with health care service have a duty of care towards their patients. If there has been a breach of a duty of care and you have suffered injuries as a result, you have the legal rights to make medical negligence claims.
