11 Deadly Hospital Mistakes: Don't be a Victim!
You Talkin' to Me?
Communication is essential for patients in the hospital. The people caring for you or your loved one need to know your medical history. And it doesn't hurt to double-check what the doctor does.
Don't hesitate to let him/her know what you think is going on with your condition - even if the doctor has access to all your records. And do what you can to make sure all the doctors involved in your care are good about keeping each other informed.
