Medical Negligence Claims Queensland


Medical negligence claims are submitted by a person seeking compensation for an injury or injuries caused by a doctor, medical practitioner or hospital due to negligence. It could also apply to a dentist, midwife, nurse, or pharmacist.

There is a reasonable standard of care that must be taken when providing treatment as a health care practitioner. Failing to take reasonable care, in circumstances where the health care provider could or should have foreseen that their actions could injure you, is considered negligence. Negligence could pertain to a patient receiving below the reasonable standard of care resulting in an injury or a worsening of an existing injury.

Medical negligence claims can be very complex and it is recommended you seek expert advice from  an injury lawyer regarding your potential compensation claim entitlements.
