Why do you require Professional Indemnity Insurance?
Any false advice or mistake whilst providing treatment could lead to a lawsuit and claim by patient against the nurse practitioner or other provider.

Typical work activities may include:
- Assisting in first aid and emergency situations.
- Assessment and management of patients.
- Medication administration.
- Observing, taking and recording patient vitals.
