We trust our local hospitals to provide help in an emergency and provide healing, not further harm. Hospitals, along with their administrators, directors, and medical care providers, have a significant obligation to their patients. Negligence, including failure to properly diagnose a patient, lack of sanitation standards that create conditions where infection is highly likely, and other acts of negligence or oversight, leave hospitals open to liability. If you or a loved one suffered harm while receiving treatment in the hospital, you have grounds to file a suit for competition against the facility. Our Kearns, UT hospital malpractice lawyer, is here to help you fight back against a powerful opponent. Please contact Rasmussen & Miner today to learn your rights.
Hospital Malpractice Lawyer Kearns, UT
Hospital malpractice takes many forms. Surgical errors are a common type of malpractice, which can include operating on the wrong body part or leaving medical supplies or other items inside a patient after suturing. A lack of cleanliness and proper sanitation protocols creates conditions where dangerous infections, such as MRSA, can spread. Hospitals are responsible for ensuring that all patients receive the appropriate standard of care for their condition, supervising and training all medical care providers. Failure to do so puts patients in danger.
We hold the entire healthcare complex liable in civil court for the harm you suffered. Our Kearns hospital malpractice lawyer can file a lawsuit for damages against the hospital, seeking compensation for all medical care related to the incident, including initial treatment and all medically necessary care required to treat the malpractice, such as surgery, rehabilitative therapy, and care in a nursing facility.
Many victims are left with chronic pain or limited mobility, which reduces their ability to work or care for themselves and diminishes their quality of life. We seek full and fair compensation for your non-material losses, too. While no amount of money can restore you to the condition you were in before you suffered hospital malpractice, the settlement you receive can give you the means for quality care (in a better facility). We represent your best interests and handle all aspects of your case so you can focus on recovering your health.
