Negligence is the claim in a medical malpractice case when a doctor or healthcare provider fails to give a particular standard of care in a certain medical situation.
A Canadian nurse, who was found to be culpable in a medical malpractice case in the United States, has recently been discovered to be working in a Toronto medical facility. Being found to have been responsible for 40 percent of a 6-million-dollar lawsuit, Rose McKenzie now must answer to the Ontario nursing organization for not informing the board of her involvement.
