Suing the NHS. Can you claim for negligence?
We are specialist solicitors helping people affected by NHS Negligence.
NHS negligence often involves medical errors which lead to patient injury or death. These incidents involve health care / medical providers making mistakes, performing acts or making omissions that deviate from the medical community’s standards of practice. While health care workers focus on providing the best care possible, mistakes are often made. Whilst suing the NHS might seem drastic, you deserve compensation if you have been left with serious complications from negligent incidents.

What is medical negligence?
Negligence is when a mistake is made without knowledge or intent. When a medical provider makes a “mistake” in treating a patient and the mistake results in harm to a patient, this is negligence. An example of negligence would be a nurse leaving gauze in a wound while assisting in an operating theater before a surgeon applies stitches. Neither had the intent to leave the gauze in the wound, it was a mistake. Misdiagnosis is another common form of negligence where a medical provider fails to diagnose. This was not intentional but possibly could have been due to a lack of knowledge or experience.
