Can hospitals be held responsible for errors?
Yes. When hospital workers make mistakes that result in harm, like administering the wrong medication, the hospital can be held responsible for the harm that occurred as a result. Hospitals can be negligent and can be found to have breached their duty to oversee the health and recovery of their patients.
