Feedback:
The number of lawsuits involving nurses is increasing. It is to every nurse's advantage to obtain liability insurance and to become familiar with legal mechanisms, such as Good Samaritan laws and statutes of limitations that may prevent or relieve culpability and provide a sound legal defense. Professional liability insurance does not focus on upgrading the nurse's professional knowledge, meeting state board of nursing requirements, or obtaining sound compensation.
