Servicing Brampton and all of Ontario

Brampton is growing in leaps and bounds. According to the most recent census data, the city grew almost three times as fast as the national average and it outpaced surrounding communities too. A growing population also means there is a growing need for new hospitals and expanding medical services to accommodate the increasing number of local patients.

Research suggests that as many as one out of every 18 of patients in Canada’s acute care medical facilities will experience preventable “adverse events” resulting in serious injury or death. More than 138,000 patients will experience these kinds of incidents each year, and about 30,000 will experience more than one adverse event during their treatment. Sadly, patients in Brampton are no exception.

What is Medical Malpractice?

Accidents can and do happen in all walks of life. But when medical providers breach standards of care due to negligence and cause or contribute to serious injury or death, it’s called medical malpractice. Victims of medical malpractice can make claims for compensation or damages for the pain, suffering and losses they’ve experienced.

Common types of medical malpractice include: medication errors (incorrectly prescribed or administered), surgical errors (instrument left inside the body, poor technique leading to infection or preventable nerve damage or scarring, surgery on the wrong body part or person), and misdiagnosis (improper testing, delayed diagnosis). These preventable adverse events can result in acquired brain injury, spinal cord damage, birth injuries (including brachial palsy and shoulder dystocia) and even death.
