In the ever-evolving landscape of healthcare, ensuring the protection of your practice is crucial. Our upcoming eTalk, Protecting Your Practice, offers an in-depth exploration of the vital role professional indemnity and public liability insurance play in safeguarding your livelihood. This essential session will cover the nuances of these insurance types, delving into real-world examples of the largest claims made against practitioners like you.

Learn about the most common risks faced in clinical practice, including referral to medical specialists, failure to diagnose and slip-and-fall incidents. These are challenges that can happen in any practice, often leading to substantial claims. We’ll also explore high-risk treatments, such as acupuncture, where a serious adverse event—pneumothorax—can have significant implications for both patient safety and practitioner liability.

Our expert speakers will provide actionable strategies to minimise the risk of claims, helping you navigate the complexities of modern healthcare with confidence.

Whether you are new to practice or an experienced professional, this eTalk is designed to equip you with the knowledge and tools necessary to protect your practice and ensure peace of mind.
