Hospital Mistakes
When an injury occurs at a hospital, it is easy to want to blame the facility. However, most doctors are not employees of the hospital, but are granted privileges to conduct scheduled medical procedures. The issue as to whether the hospital actually has some liability for a negligent act requires an in depth look at the activities involved. Was the hospital adequately staffed when an injury occurred, did the hospital give privileges to a doctor that was untrained or was an injury caused by a hospital employee. It takes an experienced medical malpractice lawyer to understand the relationship between those persons who may be responsible for causing harm.
