Understanding Nursing Negligence

Nursing negligence occurs when a nurse fails to meet the proper standard of care, resulting in harm to the patient. This can include:

  • Medication errors, including missing doses, overdoses, or administering incorrect medication
  • Failure to monitor vital signs, especially in labor and delivery
  • Inadequate wound care, leading to complications and infections
  • Failure to respond quickly to potential emergencies
  • Improper sterilization techniques, leading to hospital-acquired infections
  • Failure to assist patients with mobility, leading to preventable falls
  • Neglecting the basic needs of the patient, leading to potential bedsores or other problems

When nursing negligence occurs, the consequences can be devastating for the individual and their family. Patients deserve legal recourse for nursing malpractice, just like they would for a misdiagnosis by a doctor. Our Columbus, OH, nursing negligence lawyers are ready to assess your case.

Why Nursing Negligence Claims Can be Challenging

Like any type of medical malpractice claim, nursing malpractice cases often have complications and obstacles, which you should have our attorneys address. 

Proving negligence in a nursing negligence claim is often much more complex than simply proving an error occurred. It requires extensive investigation and evidence gathering to establish that the nursing staff breached their duty of care, resulting in harm to the patient. This often involves examining medical records, interviewing witnesses, and consulting with medical experts to build a strong case.

One of the challenges in nursing negligence claims is taking on large medical facilities. These institutions usually have a team of lawyers, corporate insurers, and resources to defend themselves vigorously. You must have a skilled nursing negligence attorney by your side who can level the playing field against formidable opponents.

Another challenge in nursing negligence claims is proving the extent of your injuries. Nursing negligence can result in severe harm, such as medication errors, bedsores, or infections. However, these injuries may not always be immediately apparent or easily quantifiable. At Beausay & Nichols Law Firm, we can work with medical experts to thoroughly evaluate your injuries, ensuring you receive proper compensation for both your current and future medical needs.

A nursing negligence claim can be overwhelming, but don't let the challenges deter you from seeking the compensation you deserve. With the help of our experienced Columbus, Ohio, firm, you can gain the support and guidance needed to pursue full compensation.
