Impact of NHS negligence
NHS negligence doesn't just cause physical harm. The consequences ripple through every part of your life. Whatever you're dealing with, we've handled medical negligence claims like yours before.
Delayed treatment, surgical error claims, or wrong medication can leave you in more pain than before. Injuries that should have been prevented.
Anxiety, depression, PTSD, and loss of trust in healthcare. 72% of negligence victims develop mental health issues as a direct result.
Private treatment costs, ongoing therapy, and medication expenses mount up fast. You shouldn't pay for fixing their mistake.
Time off work, reduced earning capacity, and career prospects damaged by injuries that should never have happened.
Home modifications, daily assistance, and long-term rehabilitation. When negligence changes your independence, compensation must cover it all.
The ripple effect on your family is real. Partners become carers, children worry, and relationships suffer under the weight of medical harm.

Common questions
Everything you need to know about making an NHS negligence claim. Can't find your answer? Call us on 0333 006 8282.
Yes, you absolutely can claim if NHS treatment caused you additional harm or made your condition worse. You need to prove the healthcare professional failed in their duty of care and that this failure directly caused your injury. As an NHS patient, you're entitled to proper medical standards every single time.
We see patients struggling with worsened conditions, mounting medical bills, and the devastating loss of trust in their healthcare. None of that should be your burden alone. Call us on 0333 006 8282. It's No Win, No Fee¹.
Yes, if NHS staff made a mistake that caused you harm, whether it's a misdiagnosis, surgical error, medication mistake, or delayed treatment, you have every right to claim compensation. Your claim won't take money from patient care. Call 0333 006 8282 for honest guidance.
Compensation depends on the severity of your injuries and their impact on your life. Minor injuries may attract a few thousand pounds, while life-changing harm from surgical errors or missed diagnoses can be worth significantly more. You can also claim for lost earnings, care costs, and medical expenses.
No, your NHS compensation comes from NHS Resolution, not hospital budgets or patient care funds. The money is set aside specifically for medical negligence payouts, so claiming won't affect a single patient or medical service.
You can claim for medication errors, delayed diagnoses, surgical mistakes, hospital negligence, dental negligence, and needle-stick injuries. Any situation where NHS staff failed to meet proper medical standards and caused you harm could be grounds for compensation.
You have three years from when the negligent treatment happened or when you discovered it caused you harm. Don't wait though. Evidence goes missing and witnesses forget details. Get in touch as soon as possible.
NHS Resolution recorded 13,784 medical negligence claims in 2023/24 alone, nearly 38 people every single day. Of those, 11,796 were awarded compensation.
These numbers show that medical mistakes happen far more often than most people realise, and you deserve justice if you've been affected.
