As a general rule of law, the private, charitable hospital bears no liability to the patient who is injured in the hospital by a physician while being treated as that physician's private patient. However, there are exceptions to this rule. Ever since the Darling decision, the courts have been imposing more and more responsibility upon hospital administration, and ultimately the board of trustees, for acts occurring within the hospital's walls.
作为一项一般法律规则，私立慈善医院对于在医院接受治疗时被医生伤害的患者不承担责任，前提是该患者是该医生的私人患者。然而，这一规则存在例外情况。自达林案判决以来，法院一直在让医院管理层，最终是董事会，对医院围墙内发生的行为承担越来越多的责任。
