Medical errors are a healthcare professional’s worst nightmare. Unfortunately, they are also quite common. According to research from Johns Hopkins University , nearly 800,000 Americans become permanently disabled or die due to a misdiagnosis every year.

Instead, it is best to know the techniques for interrupting derailing of the treatment from the beginning.
