  1. Hello, I am trying to gain insight on what my hospital is legally allowed to do. I work in the emergency room at a healthcare system that has 6 other hospitals under it's care. There has been talk about having some of us travel during our shift to the other hospitals to provide trauma care. I know some readers may think this is what is called a "flex" or "snap" position, but it is not. We do have nurses who are assigned to go to different hospital's EDs each day called a Flex RN. This new travel idea is to simply designate a nurse each shift to be ready to drive in the middle of his/her shift to another facility for a trauma. After finishing up with said trauma, the nurse is expected to finish out his/her shift at their normal home hospital. My main question is this, What are the legal considerations I should weigh if my hospital has me do this? Can they pay for my mileage? Can they pay for my auto insurance? Is there particular insurance I should buy outside auto and malpractice? Thank you for your time. I look forward to the responses.
