 There are a number of
valuable benefits that separate
Brown & Associates,
Legal Nurse Consulting from
other Legal Nurse Consultants
or Nurse Consulting Companies.
The most important benefits
for you to understand as
an attorney include our
4
Step CARE Approach SM.
Brown & Associates,
Legal Nurse Consulting
approaches each case in
the same systematic
process. This 4 Step CARE
Approach ensures that
we examine your case from
all
angles, leaving no stone
unturned. Whether plaintiff
or defense, arguments
from both sides are examined
and presented to you so
that you are well prepared
at all times, decreasing
the element of surprise.
Case Review for Merit
Brown & Associates,
Legal Nurse Consulting
uncovers the crucial facts
in your case. We are able to determine
if your case has merit and keep
non-meritorious
cases out of the courtroom so you
have more time to focus
on cases that need
your attention. Depending on the
specifics of the case,
a case screening usually
takes an average of 3-5 hours. As
a
clinician and former Nurse Manager,
we are able to review the medical
record efficiently and
effectively saving you
time and money. Brown & Associates
understands the “ideal” vs.
the “reality” of clinical
care because we have experience
with both. Nurse Practice Acts as
well as
policies and procedures present
us with the “ideal way to
practice nursing,” while
challenges that nurses face on a
day-to-day basis such as staffing
issues, and acuity,
present the “reality” that
effects the care that patients receive.
