Hospital Negligence

Hospital negligence, in the context of medical malpractice law, occurs when a hospital fails to provide the standard level of care expected in the medical field, resulting in harm to a patient. This can involve issues like inadequate staffing, poor communication among medical staff, or failure to maintain safe facilities. When a hospital's negligence leads to a patient's injury, worsened condition, or even death, it may be held legally accountable. Patients can seek compensation for their suffering and losses through legal action, demonstrating that the hospital's actions or inactions fell short of professional medical standards.
