What Is a Legal Nurse Consultant?
A legal nurse consultant (LNC) is a registered nurse who bridges the gap between healthcare and law. They review medical records, analyze clinical data, and determine whether standards of care were met. LNCs are often brought into cases involving:
- Medical malpractice
- Personal injury
- Elder abuse and neglect
- Wrongful death
- Product liability involving medical devices
Their job? To analyze medical records, identify discrepancies, interpret hospital policies, and deliver a clear, defensible written report to support or refute claims.
