Texas Medication Error Attorneys

Any time that a person is given the wrong medication, or they’re given the correct medication but in the wrong dosage, the effects can be devastating. However, the consequences of a medication error on an elderly individual can be even more severe, as these people often rely more heavily on their medications to remain healthy. Similarly, they are less likely to be able to recover quickly from a medication error. As the Texas medication error lawyers at Hotze Runkle PLLC know, nursing home workers in particular make damaging medication errors all too often.
