Do doctors make mistakes?

2015-02-25 14:35:59 UTC

I think that doctors make mistakes and they don't make mistakes most of the time. It is a fact that ten to fifteen percent of doctors make mistakes that is a one tenth chance of a mistake being made that is pretty slim but it is still possible. if a doctor makes a mistake is made so be it twice then we can talk. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iUbfRzxNy20

I believe that doctors do make mistakes because they can give you a wrong prescription, then you don't get better, then you can DIE!!!!!!!!!You can die because if you have ebola and they made a cure, but your doctor gave you the wrong prescription , then you will die!Im not just saying for ebola, it can be just for the flu. Doctors may also mess up on somebody's back surgery , and that can lead to major back pain.Then the doctor could get sued, and they will get fired, because they messed somebody's back up! Some doctors may be an under cover spy on a mission to find out who stole the gems! If the spy MUST do a surgery because the other real doctors thinks he is a real doctor, he would probably end up killing up the person, and that would be BAD! That probably would never happen, but I'm just saying.The point I'm trying to get to you is that every doctor makes mistakes, and it is something and average human does.

I think doctors should be responsible for their mistakes because as becoming doctors they know that everything is on there shoulders... If he makes a wrong incision to their patients during surgery they could kill them. Or if like the Anesthesiologist doesn't give enough anesthesia the patient could wake up and have a heart attack. If a doctor is a new-be then he should not do any big tasks like surgery or treat someone with a serious health problem, if they do and mess up then it could harm the person badly.

No because we are humans and women stay up late watching 8 years worth Gilmore Girls. Also men have other things to do like bid on He-Man merchandise on E-Bay and WATCHING SPOOORRRRTSS.

Yes because if they damage or do a wrong step to a patient they could die and if they die it is the doctors fault for making that mistake

yes, but they shouldnt (liberty)

2015-02-25 14:40:42 UTC

doctors go through training and schools just so they DON'T MAKE MISTAKES!!!

Their mistakes affect peoples LIVES possibly even cause DEATH TO A PERSON i

am not saying doctors have to be perfect, just mistakes that can KILL PEOPLE are

NOT MISTAKES YOU SHOULDN'T MAKE

Doctors can be legally responsible if they make a mistake and the patient proves that the mistake caused harm.

They need to be well rested, and need to learn to

do thing the right way. If not they didnt get sleep

and mess up the operation then that person could

be paralyzed for life or even worse.

Docters make mistakes because they are only human.

I would say docters are responsible for there actions because they are the one operating on someone and it would not be the company's fault.

It depends on the situation. Sometimes doctors just aren't prepared for the situation with the right tools and equipment. Other times, they really do make mistakes, like in the OR, maybe if they cut an insision in the wrong place on the body.

Sometimes

2015-02-25 14:41:14 UTC

if the doctor does something that they hold full responsibility for they can be,

but if they are given the responsibility of discovering a medical mystery, they are given

a large responsibility of something that may be impossible.

as long as the mistake made could have been prevented.

Should Doctors be responsible for their mistakes?...Yes!

2015-02-25 14:42:04 UTC

I think that doctors should be respnsible for their mistakes

It Depends...

I believe that if doctors are purposefully trying to ruin something then they should be held responsible but if it is truly a mistake then they should not be held responsible. Although the doctor has responsibilities so if he was drinking the night before or if he had not washed his hand before surgery then he can be held accountable as he has responsibilities as a doctor.

Docters are not legally respnsible for all of their actions/mistakes.

If the mistake caused harm and the patient can somehow prove that the

docter made the mistake.

If the patient has evidence and printed files, they could get suwed for making a

mistake. http://www.educaloi.qc.ca/en/capsules/responsibility-doctors-mistakes

After reading an article, I say that doctors nesscarliy shouldnt be punished because they try their best to do what they can. If they make a miistake, they will tell their boss what they did. If they didnt do something, they wont tell anyone what they did.

Doctors do make mistakes, but sometimes it's not always the doctors fault though. Maybe a machine or tool they're usinbreaks. They could also be tired from working all night. Sometimes doctors do mistakes, and it's their fault. Every person makes mistakes. So it's their fault bet yet not. Doctors could be losing their jobs. Making mistakes are alright, but you still don't want to make mistakes when someones life is on the line.

Yes

2015-02-25 14:50:22 UTC

Yes, doctors should be blamed for there mistakes because they should know what they are doing. If they don't then why would they be out of medical school!?! The point is, doctors don't know what they are doing.

everyone makes mistakes, why should doctors be punished more than anyone else?-anonymous

I think it depends on the situation. If they are not able to do a procedure and they have already started they should have looked more into the situation and they should be more careful. Doctors go to school so they don't make to many mistakes. They should know what they are doing and they are professionally trained to do well. I think doctors should be responsible for their mistakes because the doctors put the patients life in risk.

I don't think doctors mean to make mistakes, but they end up making them, just by not being prepared, or only because they are in training, not knowing exactly how to treat a patient with the right tools and equipment.
