ALL THOSE in the field of medicine are being at least advised to admit their mistakes to patients and relatives and avoid the customary cover-ups.
Some hope!
If they do, however, by how much will this lengthen their working day, will this lead to more or fewer official complaints and lawsuits and is it invariably in the victim’s interest to learn that negligence has occurred?
