Hospital Acquired Infections

Michigan hospital infection lawyers often represent clients who have suffered serious illness and injuries due to hospital acquired infections. In the United States every year, about one out of every twenty hospitalized individuals contracts an infection due to hospitalization. About two million people contract nosocomial infections (infections acquired in hospitals) every year.

More disturbing than the number of people who are injured or killed by hospital acquired infections is the fact that most of them could have been prevented. Hospitals stand to save a substantial amount of money by implementing practices which would avoid the infections, but many simply fail to implement practices necessary to either prevent or reduce the number of infections.

The most common nosocomial infections are growing more and more resistant to common antibiotics. Infections such as MRSA (Methicillin Resistant Staphylococcus aureus - a type of staph infection which is resistant to common antibiotics, multiplies rapidly, and causes many different types of infections); Group A strep (a type of strep that causes sore throats, but can also cause scarlet fever, rheumatic fever, or pneumonia); Group B strep (most common type of infection in newborns. It can result in pneumonia, meningitis, or brain damage, and lead to vision loss, hearing loss, cerebral palsy, or death. It can also affect pregnant women, the elderly and those with chronic medical conditions such as liver disease or diabetes); Flesh eating bacteria (necrotizing fascitis - often results in amputation of a limb or death).

Michigan hospital infection lawyers handle these types of cases on a regular basis. If you have suffered and injury due to a hospital acquired infection, you may receive compensation for your injuries including payment of medical bills, loss of consortium, pain and suffering, loss of time from work, reimbursement for continuing care, attendant care as well as other services.

Hospitals have a duty to protect patients from cross contamination and infection. If you or a loved one has been injured or killed by a hospital acquired infection, contact an experienced Michigan hospital malpractice attorney today.

Testimonials

The insurance company refused to pay my benefits. Mr. Buckfire filed a lawsuit against them and made them pay every penny that they owed... Every time I see my doctor, I thank her again for the referral to Buckfire & Buckfire.

Because of his efforts, we proved that the other driver was at fault and the driver's insurance company paid a significant settlement for our injury claims... Hiring his firm to represent my son and myself was the best decision I could have possibly made. Many thanks for the great work.

My husband died when a truck left the roadway and struck him. He was off the shoulder of the roadway helping another motorist pull his car out of a snow bank The work that they did helped me settle my Michigan wrongful death case for $1,600,000.00. Their knowledge of law was second to none and they hired the best experts to prove my case.
