What Is Medical Negligence?


Medical negligence (also called clinical negligence) occurs when medical professionals fail to provide care to the standard reasonably expected, resulting in avoidable harm, injury or worsened health. This can happen in hospitals, GP practices, dental clinics, nursing homes, and during procedures or childbirth.

A woman lies in a hospital bed with a nasal cannula, looking at two medical professionals; one in a white coat and the other in blue scrubs, in a hospital room.

Areas Of Medical Negligence Covered.


  1. Misdiagnosis or Delayed Diagnosis: Incorrect or late diagnosis can lead to inappropriate treatment, worsening of the condition, or even death.

  2. Surgical Errors: Mistakes during surgery, such as operating on the wrong body part, leaving surgical instruments inside the body, or causing nerve damage.

  3. Medication Errors: Incorrect prescribing, dispensing, or administering medication that leads to adverse effects.
