Types of Hospital Negligence Claims We Handle

Hospital negligence can take many forms, and each case deserves careful attention. Here are the most common types of hospital negligence claims we support across the UK:

  • Surgical Errors – Surgical mistakes can lead to long-term health issues and require further treatment. These errors include wrong-site operations, retained instruments, or avoidable complications.
  • Delayed Diagnosis or Misdiagnosis – A medical misdiagnosis or delay can lead to unnecessary procedures or missed opportunities for early care. Conditions in these situations may worsen.
  • Birth Injuries – Poor medical planning or delayed intervention during childbirth can harm both mother and baby. A birth injury can result in a lasting emotional and physical impact.
  • Medication Errors – Medication mismanagement can cause severe reactions or worsen a condition. These errors are preventable and often linked to poor communication or record-keeping.
  • Poor Aftercare or Follow-Up – Neglecting aftercare can lead to infections, pressure sores, or other complications. Proper monitoring is essential for safe recovery after hospital treatment.

Understanding Your Right to Compensation for Hospital Negligence

If you've suffered due to poor hospital care, you may be able to file a claim for hospital negligence. Compensation for hospital negligence can cover the following wide range of financial, physical, and emotional impacts:

  • Pain and Suffering – Compensation can reflect the physical and emotional distress caused by your injury. It recognises the impact the negligence has had on your quality of life.
  • Loss of Earnings – If your injury has affected your ability to work, you may be entitled to recover lost income. These financial options include past earnings and future earning potential.
  • Medical Treatment and Care – You can claim for the cost of ongoing medical support, therapy, or specialist equipment. These expenses can add up quickly after hospital negligence.
  • Travel Expenses – Your claim for hospital negligence can include travel to appointments and treatment centres. This claim may cover fuel, parking, or public transport.
  • Home Adaptations or Support – If your injury has changed how you live, compensation can help pay for home changes or care assistance. These changes help maintain your independence.
