Attorney: John W. Carey
Practice Area: Medication Error
Client Injury: Death

Our client was the family of a young man who died in the hospital three days after undergoing spinal fusion. His condition was stable, but a short time after receiving some pain medication, he suffered a severe reaction and died within three days. The pain medication was not administered properly, his condition was not monitored, and hospital staff did not respond to wife’s concern that her husband was having trouble breathing.
