No Cameras in the Delivery Room? The Disturbing Truth Behind the Ban

"Kodak moments" are priceless, regardless of whether a camera is actually used. But now the use of cameras may be more valuable than ever, especially in the delivery room. Depriving families of capturing their most treasured moments on film, some hospitals have banned the use of video cameras in the delivery room due to "privacy and safety concerns." The unstated reason, however, is cause for concern itself: filming the birth of a child sometimes provides evidence of medical malpractice when something goes wrong. In such a case, not only are parents deprived of re-witnessing the miracle of their son’s or daughter’s birth, but they are denied the chance to claim compensation if complications due to negligence occur.

Should cameras be used in the delivery room? If you want to protect your family from the dangers of having no evidence for a medical malpractice case and, if you are allowed the opportunity to capture childbirth on film, your camera may be worth much more than it cost. If you feel that your child has been injured due to the negligence of a hospital or health care provider, you may consider claiming compensation.
