When medical care goes wrong, the impact on patients and their families can be devastating. In Creswell, Oregon, and surrounding communities, victims of medical malpractice need experienced legal representation to help them seek justice and compensation. Moseley Collins Law brings over 40 years of experience in handling complex medical malpractice cases, helping injured patients rebuild their lives after medical negligence.

In the state of Oregon, medical malpractice encompasses situations where healthcare professionals deviate from the established standard of care in their field, leading to patient injuries or adverse health outcomes. The law recognizes that patients who suffer harm due to such negligent medical care have fundamental legal rights, particularly regarding compensation for damages.

Oregon's legal framework provides robust protections for patients, acknowledging that when medical professionals breach their duty of care, the consequences can be significant and far-reaching. The state's medical malpractice statutes enable affected patients to pursue claims against healthcare providers who fail to maintain these professional standards, ensuring accountability in medical practice while protecting patient interests.

Medical negligence can take many forms, including:

• Surgical errors and wrong-site surgery
• Medication mistakes and adverse drug reactions
• Misdiagnosis or delayed diagnosis of serious conditions
• Birth injuries affecting mother or child
• Anesthesia errors
• Hospital-acquired infections
• Emergency room mistakes
• Failure to obtain informed consent

Residents of Creswell have access to several medical facilities in the region. While most provide excellent care, medical errors can occur at any facility:

• PeaceHealth Sacred Heart Medical Center at RiverBend (Springfield)
• McKenzie-Willamette Medical Center (Springfield)
• Cottage Grove Community Hospital (Cottage Grove)

According to recent studies by Johns Hopkins Medicine, medical errors rank as the third leading cause of death in the United States. Research published in the Journal of Patient Safety estimates that between 210,000 and 440,000 patients suffer some form of preventable harm that contributes to their death each year in hospitals.

Medical negligence can result in severe, life-altering injuries including:
