There are 2 issues: 1) medical malpractice 2) personal injury.  The former claim exists if the medical practitioners at the first hospital were negligent.  It certainly seems that way, but you should speak to a personal injury attorney promptly to seek a medical opinion as that is required to proceed.  Similarly, a personal injury attorney can help your nephew explore potential recovery from the person who hit him. I trust this answers your questions and, if you live in the Delaware Valley, feel free to call or email me on a free initial basis.   Best Regards,   Matthew R.
