Common Emergency Room Mistakes
Mistakes made in ERs can escalate rapidly, especially because patients in these settings are often in critical condition. Some of the most common forms of negligence include:
- Misdiagnosis or failure to diagnose
- Delayed treatment of heart attacks, strokes, or internal bleeding
- Medication errors (wrong drug, wrong dose)
- Laboratory errors and misinterpretation of test results
- Failure to monitor unstable patients
- Discharging patients too early
- Surgical errors in emergency procedures
- Inadequate triage prioritization
In a setting designed to save lives, these failures can rob patients of recovery—and sometimes of life itself.
Who Can Be Held Liable for ER Errors?
Depending on the circumstances of your injury, multiple parties may be responsible, including:
- Emergency room doctors
- Nurses and support staff
- Specialists who failed to consult properly
- Radiologists and lab technicians
- Hospital administration (for understaffing or lack of proper protocols)
Our Houston emergency room error attorneys conduct thorough investigations to identify every responsible party and hold them fully accountable.
Damages in Houston Emergency Room Error Cases
Emergency room errors can cause immense suffering and ripple effects on a patient’s life. In these cases, compensation isn’t just about the hospital bill—it’s about rebuilding a future.
If you were harmed, you may seek recovery for:
- Immediate medical costs and hospital expenses
- Future healthcare needs, therapies, and rehabilitation
- Loss of earning ability if you can no longer work
- Physical pain and emotional distress
- Loss of independence or mobility
- Scarring, disfigurement, or permanent disability
Our team works closely with financial experts, life care planners, and medical specialists to fully value the impact of the error—and fight for every dollar you deserve.
Frequently Asked Questions
Generally, you have two years from the date of the injury. Medical malpractice laws have strict deadlines, so don’t wait to speak with a lawyer.
Consent forms do not excuse negligence. You can still pursue a claim if your care fell below acceptable standards.
Not necessarily. To succeed in a case, you must prove that the healthcare provider deviated from the accepted standard of care and that deviation directly caused your injury.
