Hospital Negligence

 

YOU CAN START A HOSPITAL NEGLIGENCE CLAIM IF YOU HAVE BEEN INJURED IN A HOSPITAL AND IT WASN’T YOUR FAULT.

Hospital negligence refers to mistakes occurring within a hospital that have resulted in patient suffering.

Hospital staff, such as, doctors or nurses are responsible for a patience’s well being while she or he is in hospital.

Unfortunately, sometimes patients can become victims of medical negligence. The most common hospital negligence cases are:

ARE YOU ELIGIBLE TO MAKE A CLAIM?

  1. Did your accident happen in the last three years?
  2. Was the accident someone else’s fault?
  3. Where you injured as a result of the accident?

WHAT WILL MY COMPENSATION COVER?

You will get compensation for:

  • Compensation for personal injury
  • Loss of earnings and financial losses
  • Medical expenses and prescription fees
  • Rehabilitation costs
  • Travel expenses
  • Private care costs

I’M NOT SURE IF MY INJURY IS SERIOUS ENOUGH

Except in very minor injuries, it is very rare to not have some degree of incapacity after your accident.

Even a simple injury to your hand could make ordinary household chores and personal care, more difficult to do. A sprained ankle could mean that you are unable to get around as easily. In such circumstances, you will need assistance from your relatives and friends.

Good news is that any assistance that you receive will potentially be possible to recover from the Defendant as part of a claim for compensation

WHEN TO START A CLAIM?

There are more chances for success, if you start your claim as soon medical negligence and its consequence becomes apparent.

However, you can also start your compensation claim within three years from the time the medical negligence happened.

WILL MEDICAL PRACTITIONER WILL BE PUNISHED?

Injury claim compensation isn’t about ‘punishing’ the medical practitioner involved. It is about acknowledging the pain and distress you’ve been through and making sure that you won’t suffer financially because of the medical negligence you’ve undergone.

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE FOR THE ERROR?

Medical negligence can arise from errors made by any health care professional, whether they work within the National Health Service (NHS) or the private sector, including:

  • Doctors
