What to Know About Birth Injury Negligence
As outlined by Cerebral Palsy Guide in the article “What Is Birth Injury Medical Negligence?” birth injury negligence occurs when healthcare providers fail to meet professional standards during labor, delivery, or prenatal care, resulting in harm to the baby or mother. Mistakes such as delayed C-sections, misuse of delivery instruments, or failure to monitor fetal distress can cause severe conditions like cerebral palsy or nerve damage.
These cases require expert review of medical records to determine whether the provider’s actions directly caused the injury. Families affected by negligence may be entitled to compensation for medical expenses, long-term care, and emotional distress. Taking legal action helps ensure accountability and supports the child’s future needs.
