Hospitals in the U.S. are big businesses and administrators are forced to run them as such. That means keeping a close eye on costs and taking every opportunity to boost profits.
Unfortunately, this can result in decisions regarding patient care that are based on the hospital’s bottom line rather than the quality of care provided. More often than not, hospital employees deliver the best care possible. But when injuries occur due to negligence on the part of nurses, radiologists, doctors and staff, the hospitals they work for can be held financially liable. The experienced legal team at DeWitt Algorri & Algorri in Pasadena, California, can help you expose negligence and violations of state-mandated standard treatment protocols as part of a medical malpractice lawsuit.
