Minnesota Hospital Negligence Attorneys

Staying in a hospital is difficult under the best conditions. In addition to the ailments they are already suffering from, patients have to confront loneliness, boredom, and the strangeness of recovering in an unfamiliar place.

Sadly, some patients are forced to suffer even more. Negligent hospital staff, including doctors, nurses, technicians and others, can make a difficult situation nearly unbearable. At the offices of Minnesota medical malpractice lawyers Terry & Slane, we have information on a variety of all-too-common forms of negligence, including:

• Incorrect administration of medication
• Failure to monitor a patient
• Unnecessary or non-consensual surgery
• Failure to adequately treat a patient
• Incorrect use of medical tools
• Failure to contact a specialist when necessary

Tragic Consequences

The results of hospital negligence can be terrible. In many cases the victim’s original ailment progresses, or is even exacerbated by incorrect treatment. Negligence can also create entirely new injuries on top of the patient’s original health problem.

Victims of negligent hospital staff may experience:

• Physical and emotional pain
• New and lasting disabilities
• Reduced quality of life
• Financial losses due to medical bills and missed work
• Brain, spinal or nerve damage
• Death
