2006 Nebraska Revised Statutes - § 71-4809 — Legal liability; policy of state.

Section 71-4809
Legal liability; policy of state.

The availability of scientific knowledge, skills and materials for the transplantation, injection, transfusion or transfer of human tissue, organs, blood and components thereof is important to the health and welfare of the people of this state. The imposition of legal liability without fault upon the persons and organizations engaged in such scientific procedures inhibits the exercise of sound medical judgment and restricts the availability of important scientific knowledge, skills and materials. It is therefor the public policy of this state to promote the health and welfare of the people by limiting the legal liability arising out of such scientific procedures to the instances of negligence or willful misconduct.
