Hospital Infection Claims

All hospitals are expected to provide a safe and clean environment to protect our wellbeing. Unfortunately, as injury+ lawyers know all too well, hospital acquired infections like MRSA and C Difficile are now commonplace in the UK.

If you have contracted any form of illness or infection whilst in hospital care, Injury+ lawyers could help you to recover compensation. Injury+ solicitors are renowned for our understanding of the issues affecting you and your family due to hospital-acquired infection.

Handling hospital infection claims

If you or a loved one has contracted an infection whilst in hospital, you will already know what a frightening ordeal it can be. You may also be entitled to recover hospital acquired infection compensation for the suffering you and your loved ones have experienced.

Here are some of the common factors that could help us pursue your case:

  • Whether you were screened as MRSA or C-Difficile negative when you were admitted to hospital
  • Whether there were delays in recognising and treating the infection
  • Whether the infection was inappropriately treated
  • If we discover there was a simple lack of medical care - for example, inappropriate wound care, inappropriate antibiotics, or a failure to monitor treatment

Injury+ lawyers have over 25 years experience of dealing with hospital infections. Your case will be handled with the utmost care and professionalism and you'll be kept fully informed throughout the process.

Don't worry if you're unsure about these factors. Get in touch as an assessment of your hospital infection claim is free. You can decide if you want to proceed with a claim for compensation.
