Understanding Medical Negligence in Dublin

Medical negligence is a serious issue in Dublin. The number of medical negligence cases are increasing day by day.

This is happening in various forms such as misdiagnosis, delayed diagnosis, surgical errors, medication errors, birth injuries, and inadequate aftercare etc.

These acts establish a legal framework for patients to seek compensation for harm suffered due to medical negligence. To make a successful claim, the patient must prove that the healthcare professional breached their duty of care and this breach resulted in the harm or suffered.

Additionally, the patient must demonstrate that the breach of duty directly caused harm, not by a pre-existing condition or other factors.
