What Is Medical Malpractice?
Call it what you will — medical malpractice, medical negligence, error in judgment, lack of knowledge or skill or an avoidable mistake. When a doctor, nurse or hospital provides medical or surgical treatment that is below the reasonable and expected standard of care, and you suffer an injury as a result, you may be entitled to recover monetary damages.
You entrust medical professionals with your health and that of your family. When a doctor or hospital breaks that trust by failing to follow the rules for diagnosing and treating your particular injury or illness, Louisiana considers the action (or inaction) to be medical malpractice.
Hospitals aren’t the only place where medical errors happen. Clinics, doctors’ offices, pharmacies, chiropractors, nursing homes and even your own home, all represent potential points of harmful or fatal medical mistakes.
Not every medical accident, unexpected result or bad outcome constitutes medical malpractice. It takes an experienced Louisiana medical malpractice attorney to know the difference. Because these cases are often complex and costly to pursue, affected patients and their families need to make sure they have a claim worth presenting to a jury.
