All types of health care providers such as doctors, dentists, technicians, nurses, hospitals or hospital staff are held to standards in their professions.  If a health care provider does not meet professional standards, or deviates significantly from them without good reason, and those actions result in harm, the health care professional may be liable for malpractice.
