Same-Day Surgery Center/Ambulatory Center Errors

Medical Malpractice Legal Help Following Errors in Same-Day Surgery Centers

Legal Help When Care Centers Don't Have the Expertise and Resources to Provide Proper Care

It's a fact. Medical errors and medical malpractice occur more frequently in same-day surgery centers, regional and rural hospitals, ambulatory centers and other medical care facilities that don't have the full resources of a large, urban hospital. Common causes of medical errors and medical negligence at these facilities include:

  • The performance of medical procedures that are beyond the scope of the facility or the facility's staff
  • Failure to diagnose complications following the discharge of a patient from the facility
  • Failure to observe patients following surgery and other procedures
  • Excessive bleeding, infections, staph infections and other problems at home following procedures
  • Too-early discharge from the facility

An additional problem with smaller facilities is the inability to handle complications once they arise even when they are detected early. The delay caused by the need to transfer patients to a full-care trauma center can cause additional injury.
