Elements of a
Medical Malpractice
Claim
A person who alleges negligent medical malpractice
must prove certain elements inorder to claim for
medical negligence. They must all be present to
form the basis for a claim, and an attorney must
prove them all to succeed in a medical malpractice
case. Here we mention those elements that should
be considered while claiming for medical negligence
case.
Duty
Health care professional owes an individual a duty to act
reasonably and appropriately ,that he or she was responsible
for providing some type of care or treatment to a patient.
Breach
Health care professional has breached the duty he or she
owes to the patient that they have deviated from or fallen
below the standard of care.
Causation
The health care professional’s breach of the standard of care
caused or contributed to causing some harm to the patient.
Damages
Damages just means that the patient sustained harm because
of the doctor’s mistake.
New Jersey Medical Malpractice Lawyer firm is an
experienced law firm which deals with medical
malpractice cases. If you have been injured in any
way because of medical negligence, you can get
claim for it. But there's a lot more to a medical
malpractice case than a patient getting hurt. If you
want to file a medical malpractice case knowing all
its points, you'll definitely need a lawyer.
