What is Medical Negligence?
All healthcare professionals have a duty of care towards their patients. They must provide a certain standard of care to their patients, failure to provide care in line with this standard, which then results in an avoidable injury, is medical negligence.
How can a healthcare professional breach their duty of care?
This can happen in many ways, perhaps you were misdiagnosed? Given the incorrect medication? Maybe your urgent treatment was delayed without good reason? These are only a few of the ways in which a healthcare professional can breach their duty of care.
