What is Clinical Negligence?

What is Clinical Negligence

We all need medical assistance at certain stages of our lives. When seeking medical advice and treatment, we place our trust and health in the hands’ of the medical professionals. More often than not, we owe our lives to these experts and we are fortunate to have access to world class treatment in the UK. However, mistakes do happen and it is you and your family that bear the consequences.

Clinical negligence relates to an instance whereby a medical professional provided care, advice and / or treatment that fell below the reasonable standard a person was reasonable entitled to expect at that time which in turn caused injury.

All types of medical professionals can be responsible for medical negligence.
