Who Can Be Sued for Medical Malpractice?

Medical negligence takes many forms. Here are a few examples:

Misdiagnoses or delayed diagnosis
Emergency room or surgical errors
Administering the wrong medication or incorrect dosage
Administering the wrong dosage or delayed dosage of anesthesia
Administering contaminated injections
Using defective medical products
Birth injuries to the baby or the mother during labor and delivery

Our attorney will review the facts of your case to learn how and where the negligence occurred so we can then determine who was liable for the malpractice and if some other individuals or entities may share liability for your harm.

Before initiating a medical malpractice lawsuit, you must first determine whose mistake caused the patient’s injury in the first place. Multiple healthcare professionals tend to be involved in a patient’s treatment and care. Here are a few common at-fault parties in medical negligence cases:

The medical professional
Family physician
Nurse
Surgeon
Gynecologist
Midwives
Physical assistant
Nurse practitioner
Dentist
Pharmacist
Optometrist
Anesthesiologist
Paramedics

Medical errors can stem from any healthcare provider, and they must be held accountable for their negligence so that they do not make the same mistake again and harm other patients. Hospitals and other facilities that employ the liable medical professional can hold fault for their employee’s actions under the vicarious liability principle.

Here are some instances when a hospital may be held accountable:

Not conducting sufficient background checks before hiring a medical provider
Not verifying the medical professionals’ experience, training, and license
Not addressing the complaints against the liable employee
Not having, inspecting, or maintaining the premise or an equipment

Other medical practitioners and healthcare facilities can also be liable for medical malpractice. If you believe that the injuries you suffered resulted from the negligent act of a medical professional or entity, contact our legal firm as soon as possible. Our Waldorf medical malpractice attorney will investigate your case and identify all liable parties.
