Perhaps you, or someone you know is
experiencing, or has experienced the agonizing pain of watching someone suffer through
some traumatic or life threatening experience involving a hospital, private doctor,
nursing home, HMO, or other health care facility.
If you're in such a situation right now, you
probably feel powerless, all alone, and maybe just intimidated. The situation may
or may not warrant legal intervention right now. Nevertheless, you feel strongly that
something needs to be done. Your sentiments -- "Where do I turn?"
"What are my rights?" How do I protect myself?"
