Oklahoma Nursing Error Attorney

Nurse errors occur when an RN or LPN fails to live up to the basic standards of care expected from an experienced medical professional. These mistakes may lead to serious, life-altering injuries or even wrongful death. If you or someone you love was harmed by a nurse’s negligence, you’ll need the advice and counsel of a knowledgeable medical malpractice lawyer.

Trusting the care you receive when you enter the hospital is the only way to get treatment. Whether you suffered an injury in an accident or are being treated for a serious illness, your care is in the hands of medical staff and professionals, including nurses.

Mistakes and negligence in handling a procedure or everyday care can be devastating. At Clark & Associates, we are experienced in representing clients who have suffered serious injury or lost a loved one because of nursing error.

Documentation Errors

It is the responsibility of nurses to document treatment received, update a patient’s file, and notify doctors of any changes in condition. If a nurse mistakenly reports the amount or type of medication received by a patient, this can be serious or deadly.

Mixing up two patients’ charts can also result in the wrong treatment or surgery for both patients. Our legal team is experienced in complex medical malpractice claims and can effectively pursue compensation for pain and suffering, lost wages, long-term care needs, wrongful death, and other personal or financial losses.
