Medical negligence occurs when a healthcare professional breaches their duty of care, causing harm. According to NHS Resolution’s 2023/24 report, the NHS received 13,784 new clinical negligence claims across England, with 52% resulting in damages. In Leicestershire, local estimates suggest hundreds of residents in postcodes like LE15, LE16, and NG13 face issues like misdiagnoses or surgical errors annually, particularly in busy hospitals like Leicester Royal Infirmary. These claims often involve significant compensation, with an average NHS payout of £50,000, reflecting the serious impact of medical errors.
