And creating solid documentation that will hold up in a malpractice case is one of those fears.
As a family nurse practitioner and expert of nurse practitioner charting, I have seen many APRNs over chart!

Unfortunately, nurse practitioner schools do not educate students about the legal process.
I think it is important for nurse practitioners to understand the legal process and ensure our documentation helps prevent a negative outcome in a mal practice case.

Hi I’m Erica D the NP
A family nurse practitioner and creator of The Burned-out Nurse Practitioner and The Nurse Practitioner Charting School.
As a nurse practitioner charting educator, I think it is important for nurse practitioners to become educated and learn the steps to prevent a negative outcome from a malpractice case.
Let’s be honest. No nurse practitioner (or any healthcare provider) is immune to a lawsuit.
Sometimes, nurse practitioners are just in the wrong place at the wrong time.
However, there are some ways we can prevent a negative outcome from a malpractice case.
