SAMLA and Conflict Dynamics are pleased to announce a joint morning seminar on Saturday 22 October 2016 in Sandton. This will be a novel training event, demonstrating the application of mediation in a real (but anonymized) medical malpractice case.
The Honourable Minister of Health has directed that medical malpractice claims against the State should be referred to mediation as the first step to the resolution of such disputes. Mediation is well-established in South Africa in commercial-, labour-, family- and other disputes. It is clear, however, that medical disputes have certain unique characteristics that will need to be catered for in medical mediation.
SAMLA has been working with MiM in the Western Cape, and is now pleased to be working with Conflict Dynamics in Gauteng, to develop the rational and effective application of mediation to medical malpractice disputes.
You are invited to assist in breaking ground in this important new territory.
