What type of damages should be assessed and how would you begin to determine the amount to assess?

How would you decide this case? Read the case study presented at the end of Chapter 7(Guido, p. 115) Were there damages that should be paid to this patient for negligence? Who should be the individuals responsible for these damages? For example, is the surgeon the individual most liable for the damages owed to the patient? Should the Bovie manufacturer also have been included in the lawsuit? Are there any defenses that the defendants could cite that would mitigate their liability to this patient? How should the court decide the damage awards in this instance? 2nd assignment:::: Read the case study presented at the end of Chapter 9 (Guido, p. 185-186). Did the lack of documentation in the admitting nurse′s assessment and notes affect the ultimate outcome of this case?

Would this be a policy that you would consider purchasing for your own liability coverage? Why or why not? What provisions of an insurance policy would you consult to determine if an insurance company should pay such a claim, and what would the limits of the liability be? Is the nursing home insurance company correct in saying that this is a professional judgment issue? Which insurance company (the nursing home′s or that of the administrator of the nursing home, assuming she has coverage) should pay the court-ordered judgment? Was the physician neglectful in this case or does the responsibility lie primarily on the nurse?
