I just passed my NCLEX and start orientation at work on the 17th on a busy med/surg floor with tele pts mixed in. My question is....where do I go to get malpractice insurance and how much should I carry? I know the hospital has it right but I still need to Cover my own butt right?

Hello, AuntieRN,

Check online with www.nso.com

You can receive free quotes immediately. I have 1/6 coverage.

Glad you are considering this. I would NEVER practice without my own coverage.
