Mistakes in A&E
Whenever a patient attends an Accident and Emergency (A&E) Department, there is a high chance they are suffering with life-threatening health problems and it is therefore crucial their treatment is quick and correct. Unfortunately, we often see A&E claims that result in catastrophic consequences.
At Williamsons, we cover all aspects of the care that a patient receives within an A&E Department; the most common errors we deal with include:
- Wrongly discharging patients home when further investigation/treatment is necessary
- Failing to diagnose a fracture
- Failing to diagnose and treat life-threatening conditions
If you feel you have suffered from poor care at the hands of a medical professional in A&E, give us a call. We promise to investigate the circumstances of your A&E care thoroughly to determine if any avoidable errors have occurred. Our friendly and knowledgeable team has extensive experience of handling all of the different types of cases arising from A&E care.
