“I found the legal
information most helpful. The book did a great job
defining legal definitions and helping you understand
what the Legal Nurse Consultants’ job actually entails.
I also enjoyed the “hands on” portion of the course.”

2. WHY A NURSE AND NOT A DOCTOR? |
-
The Nurse is the primary care giver of the
patient and often is the first one to
identify problems in assessments, change
in mental status, lab abnormalities, and
other observations in patient condition.
-
An MD cannot speak on behalf of a nurse
when it comes to nursing, related
issues, or standards of care. Nurses are
much more knowledgeable regarding
hospital policies and procedures.
-
A Legal Nurse Consultant will save time
and money, weed out non-meritorious
cases, and give vital information in
terms clients can understand.

3. WHY NOT A PARALEGAL? |
-
The Legal Nurse Consultant brings clinical
experience, medical training and
terminology to the investigation of a
case that a paralegal does not have.
-
A paralegal might be able to read the
chart but lacks the clinical knowledge
to know what information is missing from
the records and what actions should have
been taken in a specific clinical
situation.

4. WHY WOULD AN ATTORNEY NEED AN
INDEPENDENT NURSE CONSULTANT?
|
-
Many times with heavy case loads and
rushed deadlines, an attorney can use an
independent consultant to do important
tasks. For instance, locating the right
nurse or physician expert witness and
researching medical data. Using an
independent Legal Nurse Consultant provides
cost-effective support for heavy case loads
without hiring another employee full-time.
