\"\"A lady has obtained compensation from the NHS after she was left injured when an operation did not go according to plan.\u00a0 The Daily Post<\/a><\/em> reports that the woman had had a series of operations on her foot to prevent it from overlapping and to correct her toes which were facing the wrong way.\u00a0 However, as a result of the unsuccessful operation, where a joint was damaged and her big toe was left too short, the woman has been left in enduring pain with her balance affected, and she now has to use a mobility scooter if she wants to go anywhere<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

As the Daily Post<\/em> reveals, the woman in question notes that her \u2018life since the operation has changed completely\u2026I have to use a stick or crutches to walk long distances and I have to use the mobility scooter when shopping<\/strong>.\u2019\u00a0 Furthermore, the woman\u2019s sleep has been disturbed, she has had had problems cooking, and she has needed to adapt her home and get help in to ensure that she can get through every day.\u00a0 The compensation<\/a> that the woman has received will therefore go some way in helping with the costs of the help that she has already paid for, and the costs of any help she may need in the future.\u00a0 It is an attempt to put the woman back in the position she would have been had the incident not occurred.<\/p>\n

The NHS has since admitted liability for medical negligence<\/strong>.\u00a0 As you may already know, the NHS has an important duty of care to all its patients<\/strong>.\u00a0 That is, when you are in the care of the NHS, your well-being is to be maintained.\u00a0 After all, you undergo an operation to put right whatever is wrong, not to make things worse.\u00a0 The NHS has a duty to carry out its treatments and surgical procedures correctly – not to make mistakes which will ultimately hinder your lifestyle<\/strong>.\u00a0 If you have similarly had a failed operation you may also be entitled to compensation<\/a>.\u00a0 It is therefore important that you seek the advice of a professional and quality injury lawyer with years of experience in dealing with medical negligence<\/a> claims.\u00a0 At The Injury Lawyers<\/a> we have this expertise and we are able to provide you with No Win No Fee <\/a>legal representation. If you feel that you may have a claim, it is definitely worth giving us a call.\u00a0 Please remember that you have three years in most circumstances from the date of your accident to make your claim<\/strong>.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
