Re: Nurses malpractice insurance

Yes! Get the insurance!
I can't keep up with how much they change our P/Ps. But when I went over them, I was amazed at how different they are from actual practice.
Simple things that don't make sense-like the frequency of dressing changes on Piccs. But we now use a biopatch which decreases the frequency of the changes.
But say I go by our new standard (which hasn't been reflected on our P/P yet) and the pt gets a line infection, and dies.
You've just practiced outside of your p/p, and guess what? The hospital will NOT cover you.
And you will be on your own.
The insurance will also help if you are even in trouble with the BON.
