Impact of Surgical Errors
Depending on the type of surgical error, victims’ results can vary significantly. The effects of medical errors can continue long after the hospital releases a patient. Surgical errors not only lead to permanent quality of life challenges and physical harm; they’re emotionally damaging.
When surgical errors result in wrongful death, families may feel robbed of natural healing and a life unnecessarily cut short. They may feel horrified that a place of supposed safety directly caused a loved one’s death. Those permanently injured by surgical errors are stuck with the emotional damage of institution betrayal and the knowledge that due care could have prevented these damages.
