Answer 2

Answer:

Standard of care.

Explanation:

Caretakers and physicians must follow a standard, like a set of rules to do a good job, meaning to avoid any injury or harm to a patient, which can be "suetable" which in this case constitute a tort.

A tort suite take place with the purpose of obtaining a civil remedy after a harm or injury, which can happen if caretakers and physicians don't follow a standard of care.
