Attorney Liaison
Would you like more control of the medical facts of your case? My nursing background provides you with an informed edge that clarifies the case issues without the “medical speak.”
Court Trial Preparation
I specialize in helping attorneys find the right pieces of medical information during depositions and trials. An experienced nurse advising your team can anticipate what is needed and will find key pieces of medical information in the records or depositions materials.
Medical Record Review
A varied nursing background is an essential and valuable asset in any case where health, illness, or injury is an issue. Eliminate the uncertainty about the quality of reports you receive.
Locate Medical Experts
Choosing a medical expert witness is challenging, and many cases require more than one expert medical witness. Imagine an industrial accident where medical issues need an expert in burns and another medical expert in plastic surgery.
Independent/Defense Medical Examination
I can be a medical observer who will be present at the examination and write a report concerning the results.
Audit Trail Analysis
The audit trail is the stepping stone to more discovery, but it needs explanation. My training in audit trail analysis can enhance your understanding of what the entries mean, fill in timelines, or point out objective data of what happened to the patient. I am familiar with the different types of EMRs, their data dictionaries, and how to request specific data from certain systems.
