WHY DO A PEOPLE SUE?
Imagine never being able to work again because of permanent brain damage caused by a doctors' negligence.
Imagine not being able to clothe, feed or bathe yourself, and needing 24 hours a day attendant care because of a permanent healthcare injury.
The purpose of compensation laws is to put the plaintiff back into the position they would have been, had the negligence not occurred. Compensation is calculated on the basis of need.
Compensation is awarded for :-
• pain and suffering
• income you may have forfeited whilst recovering from the condition attributed to the negligence
• future income you may lose (known as future economic loss) as a result of the health care providers negligence
• costs associated with treatment, medications, nursing services, rehabilitation courses etc to assist in the recovery and injury repair process.
