What is a Nursing Negligence Claim?

A claim for nursing negligence is an action taken by a patient (or their family) against a trust or other medical establishment arising out of the negligent nursing treatment.
Nurses play an important role in managing, assisting, and recording the recovery of patients under their care. Any breach of their professional duties will likely result in harm to the patients they care for, causing injury or worsening of symptoms that patients are presenting with.
