Introduction

Our Attorney client's time and success are at the forefront of our main focus and goals.  Since time is a finite resource for Attorneys, we ensure our end product is intellectual and actionable, giving our clients maximum productivity for their firms.  

Attorneys have little time to review medical charts, place information chronologically, and develop a summary of events to discover breaches in standards of care and regulatory compliance. Healthcare is a rapidly changing science; evidence-based practices should support clinical decisions. With new information, treatments, and medications that come out frequently, we stay on the forefront of information to keep our clients clinically current.

Charlene Gozony of Gozony Legal Nurse Expert Consultants has over 24 years of experience working as a Registered Nurse within various specialties and disciplines, from Hospital Administration and management of in-patient units in acute care hospitals to development and implementation of nursing units and hospital protocols. Nurse Gozony is clinically current, and has experience in  Critical Care RN, Trauma RN, NeuroTrauma RN, Pre and Post Anesthesia Care Unit RN, Medical-Surgical, Telemetry, Progressive Care Unit, and Float pool Units, and Regulatory Compliance. Nurse Gozony is meticulous at assessing for breaches in standards of care, regulatory compliance policies, and procedures to evaluate cases for merit and preparation for trial.
