Preventable medical errors occur every day in the state of Florida and around the world. According to the American Association for Justice, 98,000 people die every year with injuries contributed to medical mistakes. Preventable medical error statistics show that 18% of patients are injured in the course of their stay at the hospital. Moreover, the Joint Commission Center on Transforming Healthcare estimates that medical error rates include 40% of the wrong site or wrong patient procedures that happen every week in America.
If the Centers for Disease Control included medical malpractice or medical negligence as a category on the Leading Cause of Death in the United States, preventable medical errors would be the sixth leading cause of death. If you have been one of the estimated 40% that have suffered due to a preventable medical error, our Orlando medical malpractice lawyers at Burnetti, P.A. may be able to help you obtain compensation.
Many patients can testify to medical malpractice stories. There are many different ways medical mistakes can occur, such as:
“People come to us at the hardest moments of their lives. My job is to give them strength, fight for what’s right, and make sure their voice is heard where it matters most—in court.”
When entering a hospital or health care facility the patient expects to be treated by an educated medical professional and anticipate leaving with an improved condition; however, if you have suffered from preventable medical mistakes, Burnetti, PA’s medical negligence lawyers in Orlando may be able to help fight on your behalf. A medical negligence lawsuit attorney fights to assist clients in receiving the financial recovery they deserve and need.
