Premises liability is at even higher stakes through the COVID-19 pandemic. Particularly for medical facilities—hospitals, doctors’ offices, nursing homes—careful compliance with new social distancing, personal protective equipment (PPE) rules, and sanitation protocols are critical responsibilities for maintaining health and safety. As you prepare litigation regarding medical facilities’ or other types of businesses’ premise safety, it will be fundamental to consult with a health and safety expert witness who can opine on the specific protocols for ensuring safe site operations through the coronavirus crisis.
A health and safety expert witness can discuss:
Potential premises hazards introduced by COVID-19
Preventative responsibilities in light of COVID-19
OSHA compliance for employers
Compliance with CDC business guidelines
Adherence with emerging safety mandates for reopening businesses
Liability immunity for medical personnel and/or facilities within certain states
