So in in the setting of medical malpractice uh law, there are often multiple parties who could be
responsible for any given uh error. That includes of course the the actual health care provider whose conduct is at issue
whether it’s a physician, a nurse, some other provider. But it can also include an institutional defendant such as a
hospital or a medical group. Oftent times the claim may be one of inadequate
training or or failure to promulgate important rules or or regulations pertaining to the care at issue. And so
it’s not only an individual failure, but it’s an institutional failure as well.

Stamford, CT personal injury attorney Gretchen Randall talks about who, besides your doctor, you can sue for medical malpractice. She notes that medical malpractice cases often involve multiple potentially responsible parties rather than a single healthcare provider. Liability may extend beyond physicians, nurses, or other medical professionals to include hospitals, medical groups, and other healthcare institutions whose policies, training practices, or oversight contributed to the alleged error. She further explains that some claims arise not only from individual mistakes but also from broader institutional failures, such as inadequate training or the absence of appropriate procedures and standards of care.
