Purchase options and add-ons

An anesthesiologist chips a patient's tooth during a difficult intubation. A surgeon leaves tiny abrasions on a patient's abdomen during a delicate surgical procedure. And an operating room nurse accidentally nips a patient's finger with a pair of scissors.

Not all of these examples of medical mistakes will result in malpractice suits. But for the ones that do, health care providers must invariably come to grips with facing the most important step in defending a medical malpractice lawsuit - the deposition phase. Whether or not a malpractice case ends in settlement or at trial, depositions are the most important pieces of evidence because a witness' performance during this phase is literally carved in stone, and facts elicited from depositions often play a major role throughout the remainder of the litigation.

The Health Care Providers Guide To Facing The Malpractice Deposition can provide anyone in the health care industry with the tools necessary to come out of a malpractice deposition unscathed or with as few bruises as possible. This exhaustive book includes excerpts from actual depositions, and addresses topics such as law and legal thinking, the standard of care, preparing for the deposition, and common forms of interrogation.

While this text will not protect health care providers from malpractice litigation or prevent pricey settlements and judgments, it can help prevent medical personnel from becoming self-damaging witnesses and their own worst enemies.

Editorial Reviews

Review

"Dr. Uribe presents an organized flow of information as she takes the reader on a journey through the legal process, including the depositions, interrogatories, and the actual courtroom. She discusses exhaustively aspects of law, legal thinking, standards of care, and preparation for meeting with legal professionals… In summary, the rules and principles that Dr. Uribe advocates are truly helpful tools… I would definitely recommend this book to all healthcare professionals, including medical and nursing students."
-Teresa I. Gonzalvo, MPA, RN, CPHQ, CLNC

5.0 out of 5 stars Extremely helpful guide
Reviewed in the United States on August 31, 2006
During the extreme stress of preparing for a deposition, my lawyers prepared me for the facts, but not the technique. The examples and philosophy and clarity of writing in this book were INVALUABLE to me. I also found it to be helpfully in dealing with the tremendous emotional impact of the litigation.

A MUST for any physician, whethering facing a lawsuit now, or the inevitable lawsuit in the future.
