Every year thousands of patients are injured by medical errors that could have been prevented.

As a patient, you carefully took the time to choose your physician, surgeon or hospital. Perhaps, you were transported to a hospital for an emergency. While you were under the care of your medical provider, you rightfully assumed that you were receiving the best possible treatment. However, things may have gone terribly wrong if the physician, nurse, hospital or surgeon made a serious mistake. Every year thousands of patients are injured by medical errors that could have been prevented. According to a study by HealthGrades, there were 238,337 potentially preventable deaths that occurred from 2004 through 2006.

Standards of Acceptable Care

Health care providers are required to meet certain standards of acceptable care and when they fail to do so, a patient has a claim of medical malpractice. A medical provider rarely admits to the patient of making a medical error. This is why you will need someone on your side who has a thorough understanding of the Tennessee or Kentucky law pertaining to medical malpractice.
