These preventable infections can transform your life permanently, creating physical, emotional, and financial hardships that last for years.

Multiple parties may be liable for a hospital-acquired infection. The hospital itself is primarily responsible for maintaining safe conditions and enforcing infection control protocols. Individual healthcare providers may also be liable if their actions directly contributed to your infection through improper procedures or failure to follow established safety guidelines. In some cases, equipment manufacturers or cleaning service contractors may share responsibility.
When healthcare facilities fail to maintain proper sanitation standards or follow infection control protocols, you deserve justice.
