Following on from the success of our previous Clyde Bites series, our Bristol Healthcare Department will be releasing a new series of short, practical podcasts focusing on the fundamentals of clinical negligence law.
In this episode Rob Wilson explains how the courts approach the issue of negligent consent and how this differs from the usual Bolam breach of duty test. He highlights how failure to adequately inform patients of risks, benefits, and alternatives can lead to legal liability.
