Doctors don’t care
They just work to get some money.
There’s a local news story about one family’s quest to get a local hospital blamed for the death of a family member. It’s another c.diff story where the hospital is to blame for the death of an elderly and infirm person (point of note – some old people die you know).
Here’s some quote from the local rag:
“Doctors began an antibiotic treatment suspecting a heart infection. Some antibiotics can make patients more susceptible to developing the superbug.
Mr Bradford said: “She was never told of the risks or given the choice about the treatment. As a family we were never told of the risks.”
So if they were told of the risks they would have not accepted the treatment? Is that what they’re saying? So the poor woman would have died from the original problem then.
Yet again we see people putting themselves through the mill for monetary gain. Now there’s blame there’s a claim. No doubt.
Have fun.
