Early Medical Record Analysis Before Expert Retention
For Plaintiff Medical Malpractice Attorneys — Nursing Standard-of-Care Review, Liability Analysis, and Expert Matching
CNOR-Certified Perioperative RN | Active Clinical Practice | Surgical, Inpatient, and Skilled Nursing Facility Cases
I review healthcare records to determine whether the documented care supports the theory of injury and where the key clinical issues exist before committing to expert retention.
When nursing care is involved, I help attorneys identify potential deviations from nursing standards and assist in locating the appropriate nursing expert when a specialty match is required.
