In today’s litigious environment, where high-stakes negligence suits plague the health care industry, it is imperative that health care professionals understand their rights and responsibilities under the law and the legal ramifications of their actions. Patient Care Case Law: Ethics, Regulation, and Compliance is a unique compendium of case studies that provides a foundation for that understanding. The broad variety of case studies covered in this reference is organized around the patient’s progression through the health system, from admission to discharge. The text features chapters on patient rights, the screening and assessment process, diagnosis, treatment, universal protocols, discharge planning, and follow-up care. Additionally, chapters on employee and patient safety, human resources, and criminal acts round out the content.
