Nursing and Nursing Home Malpractic

“Nursing Malpractice” or “Nursing Home Malpractice” is routinely characterized by a departure in the generally accepted standard of care that was the probable direct and foreseeable cause of an injury.  The departure in care may include defective equipment, failure to respond to an emergency, infections caused by lack of proper sterile technique, failure of an employee to follow a physician’s orders, delay in treatment, failure to document or respond to symptoms, failure to motor vital signs, failure to order lab work, failure to warn of risks, improper treatment, improper prescription of drugs, failure to prescribe drugs, improper medical procedure or technique, ignoring of relevant patient history, a nursing failure to clean or rotate unresponsive patient, bed sores caused by nursing or other nursing home employee neglect, and many other improper practices, techniques or failure to properly care for the patient.

Serious, permanent and disabling injuries may result, including otherwise unnecessary additional surgeries, paraplegia, quadriplegia, severe scarring from bed sores, septic shock and other infections, extended recoveries and even death.

            Although nurses and nursing home employees generally attempt to do their best with patient care, they nonetheless are human beings and prone to making mistakes on occasion.  When those mistakes constitute Hospital Malpractice and an innocent patient is caused a serious injury, then the Law and our Courts recognize the right of that innocent patient to seek and obtain fair and complete compensation for pain, suffering, disability, loss of enjoyment of life, medical expenses, loss of income and other damages.

            The law generally requires that in medical malpractice cases the plaintiff present opinion testimony from a Medical Expert, such as a reviewing physician, to testify with specifics as to the nature of the malpractice committed by the defendant.  The Law Office of Geoffrey D. Eberle relies upon by best qualified available Medical Experts in our malpractice actions.  In addition, we may rely upon Economic Experts and Life Care Experts to quantify the nature and value of your damages, enabling the Court to calculate the full nature of your money damages.

The law limits the time period within which you must protect your rights by filing a Complaint and/or taking other steps to “perfect” your rights. Otherwise you may forever lose your opportunity to seek and obtain compensation. Don't wait. To sleep on your rights may be fatal to your claim.
