When the standard of care at the Accident & Emergency Department drops below an acceptable standard, this can result in the occurrence of additional injuries and illnesses.

Claims of this nature include delays in diagnosis and treatment causing a condition to get worse and often consist of failure to refer for appropriate tests, insufficient examinations or misinterpretation of test results.

If you feel the treatment received at the Emergency Department was unreasonable and resulted in deterioration of your condition, you may have a medical negligence claim.
