Examples of Nursing Malpractice
Nursing malpractice shows up in many different forms:
- Medication Errors: This refers to the wrong medication or dosage given to the patient. It can lead to severe complications or even death.
- Negligence: This involves not providing the necessary care or treatment to the patient, leading to worsening of their condition.
- Poor Documentation: Lack of proper record-keeping can cause confusion and errors in treatment.
- Failure to Monitor: Nurses must regularly check on their patients’ conditions. Failure to do so can lead to undetected complications.
- Improper Use of Medical Equipment: This can lead to injuries or incorrect diagnoses.
- Failure to Follow Standards of Care: Not adhering to accepted nursing practices can result in harm to the patient.
Can a Nurse Be Held Personally Liable for Malpractice?
Yes, a nurse can be held personally liable for malpractice. Just like doctors, nurses are expected to provide competent and safe care to their patients. If a nurse fails to meet the standard of care and their actions result in patient harm, they can be sued for malpractice.
