Even though inpatient falls can occur due to the nature of the patient’s injury, at times, they can indicate medical malpractice. Other medical professionals, such as nurses and insurance providers, also owe duty of care to patient to some degree. When there is breach of duty of care towards patient, this is typically measured by how other doctors would have handled similar circumstance. The use of expert testimony, can help prove breach of duty.
