Holding Hospitals Accountable for Negligent Treatment
For so many in our society, hospitals project an image of safety. When people are hurt, their first instinct is to get to the hospital so that they can be treated and well cared for. This makes it that much more devastating when injuries or death are caused as a result of hospital malpractice.

What is Hospital Malpractice?
Hospital malpractice includes any type of medical negligence that occurs in a hospital setting, including errors committed by doctors, surgeons, technicians, nurses and other hospital staff. We have successfully brought hospital malpractice claims for a variety of reasons, including:
- Nursing errors
- Surgical mistakes
- Inadequate staffing
- Mismanagement of records
- Substandard care
- EMT malpractice
- Anesthesia errors
From improper diagnosis or care for an infection to a surgery gone wrong, there are countless ways in which hospital malpractice can occur. But all instances of hospital malpractice have one thing in common: negligence. There is no excuse for negligence in a hospital setting, and hospitals need to be held accountable when patients suffer as a result.
