What is medical and clinical negligence?
The definition of medical negligence is the failure to provide care which deviates from the standard accepted level; resulting in harm, injury or death.
A breach in the duty of care can be found in different elements of treatment such as:
- Delayed diagnosis
- Careless procedures
- Failure to warn of risks in treatment
- Medication errors
- Delayed referral
- Failure to obtain proper consent
The doctor/patient relationship in medical negligence cases could include the NHS, GPs, dentists, private clinics and also health authorities/trusts.
