Sometimes, these errors happen when a physician fails to follow the established rules for diagnosing and treating a suspected condition. However, often these errors are not caused by a single healthcare provider’s carelessness, but rather when rules put in place by hospitals to ensure patient safety are ignored or dismissed. These rules are known as “standards of care,” and when you or your loved ones are hurt by a violation of these standards, the Constitution and laws of Florida give you the right to enforce them in the courts of this state.
Regardless of the ways in which medical providers or hospitals cause these injuries, they bring with them devastating physical, psychological, and financial losses.
