Boca Raton Regional Hospital Medical Malpractice Lawyer
Boca Raton Regional Hospital has a Consumer Report rating of 52/100, with low ratings for communication about hospital discharge and drug information. With its failures as a facility meant to care for the ill and vulnerable, it is no surprise that it has been the subject of medical malpractice cases in the past. In 2016, a settlement was reached in the case of K.S., who became paraplegic after staff failed to follow standard protocol in securing her spine after a serious automobile accident.
Ms. S. was in pain when she arrived at the hospital, though she could not tell from where her pain was originating. Hospital staff moved her from the stretcher to the emergency room, lifting her with a bed sheet rather than securing her on a hard surface, going directly against protocol. Staff also had Ms. S. sit up to undress without protecting her spine. These failures in protocol observation are what caused her permanent damage, which will require lifelong care.
As is the case with Ms. S., medical negligence often has serious consequences that may negatively alter the life of an individual. You have the right to take legal action when you or someone you love has been harmed by a hospital or medical professional.
