Some patients simply die of errors witnessed by a few employees who are too afraid of losing their jobs to speak up about what they’ve seen. Since a comprehensive list of negligent hospital errors and omissions would be too unwieldly for any article, a sample list has been set forth below.

Head Neurological Injury Lawyers - Frekhtman & Associates

Immediate diagnosis and treatment remain crucial to achieving the best patient outcomes. While surgeries can help reverse some brain injuries – the cognitive disorders (those that disrupt clear thinking and reasoning) -- can often require long-term rehabilitative care.

Posted by Arkady

in Personal Injuries, Premises Accidents, Slip & Fall Accidents

New York City residents constantly suffer serious injuries while driving in parking lots. They also get hurt when using stairways, ramps and sidewalks. One major medical journal article states that at least one million Americans injure themselves annually on staircases. Although roughly 50% of all homes have staircases, many of these accidents also occur in the workplace. While many people injured on stairs are much older, two-thirds of those who seek emergency room treatment for stairway injuries are between the ages of eleven and sixty. Stairway accidents often occur because people are distracted -- or because of design hazards. In some...

Posted by Arkady

in Construction Accidents

Welders are crucial to every major construction site project. They’re kept busy using intense heat sources while welding together many different types of parts during all phases of erecting or renovating a building. Although many of their most exacting tasks must be handled in confined spaces, welders must also be prepared to take their tools outdoors to work on scaffolding or different levels of buildings under construction. Besides using their hands, welders often use various tools and machines to weld parts together.
