Steven M Donn1.   

Abstract

The medical malpractice situation in many countries is reaching epidemic proportions. This paper examines the concepts of medical liability and professional risk management, as well as the relationship they play in determining the quality of healthcare services. The role of documentation and accurate record keeping is also stressed. High-risk clinical situations and medication errors are also addressed.
