Types of Hospital Negligence
Hospital negligence does not simply mean that a doctor has made an error. Any hospital employee, whether a doctor, nurse, technician, or support staff member, can make a mistake that has serious consequences.
Mistakes in record-keeping are some of the most common ways for hospitals to harm their patients. It can be a disastrous situation if a doctor thinks a patient needs one type of treatment when they actually need something completely different.
Additionally, if the hospital does not have effective systems of communication set up between doctors and other staff members, they may lose significant efficiency that could cost valuable minutes when dealing with an emergency.
