A case of medical negligence !

rustic · 24-02-2011, 13:39

Having been to Crewe yesterday, to try to sort the TV in the bedroom for my mother-in-law, (Maplin Thread), I now find that my Mother-in Law has been diagnosed with kidney failure. Caused by an overdose of medication.

She was on a dosage of a particular item, the doctor adjusted the prescription to a new value but didn't cancel the original dose, as a consequence she has been taking both.

The prescription is on repeat, so nothing is ticked, it is fully automatic.

This isn't her only item, as when she visits, she has 2 overnight cases, one for her personal items and another for her medication.

So what is the best way to look into medical negligence without costing a fortune?

We have nothing in writing at the moment, but we will be getting more information .... we hope.

Best regards,
Richard
