Another common error in medical malpractice
is when a doctor or other health practitioner
absentmindedly prescribes the wrong medicine or does not
check into a patient's medical background thoroughly. These
actions can prove disabling or even fatal.
Prescription Drug Errors Also Occur From:
- The administration
of the wrong medications
- The failure to timely give
the appropriate dosage of the ordered medicines
- The improper
calculation of the correctly ordered dosage of medicine
- The failure to order the proper medicines under
the circumstances
The following section below describes some concerning
laws on medical malpractice:
Delaware law further requires that to prove liability,
the victim of medical negligence must present "expert
medical testimony" showing that "the alleged
deviation from the applicable standard of care" caused
the injury.
It is important you act
now about your Delaware medical malpractice
case due to the Statute of Limitations. Your
case must be commenced within two years from the date
of injury, or within three years of the date of injury
if the injury was not known and could not reasonably
have been discovered during the initial two year period.
For medical malpractice cases involving minors, a minor must file
within the two year statutory limitations period or,
if below the age of six at the time of injury, up to
their sixth birthday, whichever time period is greater.
