Leon County, Florida Hospital Negligence
Florida's growing population has led to an overburdened health care system, and that can result in dangerous mistakes made by hurried or exhausted doctors, nurses and other health care workers.
Diagnostic errors were 5 times more likely among first-year doctors who are exhausted by the traditional work schedule required during a residency program, which can total up to 80 hours per week. That data from a study conducted by The Agency for Healthcare Research also revealed that seemingly small errors such as failure to monitor treatment could lead to irreversible patient injury or death.
The Florida medical malpractice lawyers at The Corry Law Firm have dedicated their careers to making hospitals and health care workers accountable for incidents of medical malpractice and hospital negligence that result in catastrophic injury or wrongful death.
