Charleston Medication Error Lawyers

Most elderly patients in nursing homes have specific medications that they must take in order to manage pain, deal with illnesses or correct health issues. Nursing home staff must keep medications organized in order to ensure that the right patient gets the right medications. If a wrong medication is distributed to a patient, then the consequences can be serious.

Our lawyers have decades of experience handling personal injury and medical malpractice claims, and continue to maintain a proven track record in advocating for injury victims.

Why Do Medication Errors Occur?

Medication errors occur when people do not pay enough attention to medication schedules, they fail to follow medical charts, or they simply neglect to provide a patient with the medication he or she needs.

It may be considered a medication error if:

  • A patient is not given his or her medication in a timely manner
  • The wrong dosage of a medication is given
  • The wrong type of medication is given
  • Medication is withheld from a patient

Our Charleston attorneys will conduct a full investigation of the details of the situation and look for discrepancies in patient charts and care plans. We make fully certain our clients’ rights are protected in the legal process and work hard to reach positive results.
