If you are not the named defendant in the lawsuit, which I'm assuming you aren't, then it is your choice if you have your own attorney present. If your former employer is the named defendant, that entity's defense attorney will be present at the deposition.

Only if you are named as a defendant or believe that you may become a defendant in the lawsuit.

You have given me know facts upon which to base my answer. What are you being deposed about? Are you suspected of having done something wrong? Is there the possibility that criminal charges could result from what you say during your deposition? If any of these are a possibility, Yes, consult with an attorney before your deposition.

You should have at least have the hospital's attorney present to assist you.

Only if it might result in you being sued or losing your license or being charged.
