5 Common Examples of Nursing Malpractice and How Poulos & Coates Can Help Victims Seek Justice
Las Cruces, New Mexico - January 27th, 2025 - When you visit a hospital or medical facility for injuries or illness, you trust you'll be in good hands with the medical professionals. If you're hospitalized, you'll likely interact with nurses the most. A doctor will visit once or twice a day, but your main point of contact will be the nursing staff. While most nurses treat patients to the best of their abilities, some are negligent.
Nursing malpractice can have devastating consequences, leaving patients and their families to face physical, emotional, and financial hardships. The Medical Malpractice Lawyers at Poulos & Coates, LLP, are dedicated to helping victims of nursing negligence navigate the legal process and obtain the justice they deserve.
Below are 5 common examples of nursing malpractice and how Poulos & Coates, LLP can provide expert legal assistance for those affected.
1. Medication Administration Errors
Mistakes in administering medication, such as incorrect dosages, wrong medications, or failing to recognize dangerous drug interactions, can lead to severe complications or even death. These medication errors often stem from negligence or miscommunication. Poulos & Coates has the expertise to investigate these cases thoroughly and hold the responsible parties accountable.
2. Failure to Monitor Patients Properly
Nurses are responsible for monitoring patients' vital signs and responding promptly to changes in their condition.
