Malpractice Insurance - Get It NOW!!

I know I have commented on this so many times, but there are still too many nurses still not get insurance on their careers. Please take the time to protect your livelihood. It is not that expensive and the benefits FAR outweigh the few problems.
Remember that the main reason to get malpractice insurance is to provide legal representation and expense reimbursement in case a complaint is filed with the Board of Nursing (it is appears much more likely that a nurse will be reported than ever before).
