A lot has been written across online nursing communities about the case of Amanda Trujillo, a nurse currently defending her license with the Arizona State Board of Nursing. Regardless of your position on the case, it brings up an important question for nurses—how can nurses protect themselves in the event that their license is challenged?

In an article written for BestNursingDegree.com, Terri Polick explains how malpractice insurance can factor into defending and protecting your nursing license. The full text of the article is available as part of the New Nurse Survival Guide on the homepage of BestNursingDegree.com, on the “On the Job” tab, “Why you need malpractice insurance.”
