The College of Nurses of Ontario (CNO) Council approved a bylaw about liability insurance coverage.
The amended by-law requires that every member holding a certificate of registration “shall maintain professional liability protection to indemnify the member for all errors and omissions that may occur while practicing nursing in Ontario…The CNO has formally recognized that the professional liability protection can be provided through an employer’s insurance policy.”
That means you will continue to be covered by the ONA Liability Insurance Plan along with what your employer offers, and you will not be obligated to purchase additional liability insurance.
