Hospital Employee Sits Patient Up in Bed, Against Doctor's Orders
We represented a lady who had undergone surgery on her spine. Following surgery, her surgeon had ordered that she was to remain lying down. A hospital employee came in, in the early hours of the morning to draw blood, and sat the patient up despite her protestations that she was supposed to be lying down. This destroyed the spinal fusion which resulted in the patient undergoing further surgeries and left her in even more pain than she was in before the first surgery.
