Nursing - professional indemnity insurance/union membership? ?

Hi,

 

I'm moving to Coffs Harbour, NSW in August, no job yet but hopefully something will happen soon...

just wondered what other nurses have done you regarding indemnity insurance as I was under the impression it was obligatory for nurses in oz or could you just have cover from your employer??

In the UK I'm a member of RCN which isn't mandatory but would provide cover. not really sure how it works over there?

 

I would be grateful for some suggestions/clarity!!

 

Sam :-)

The nurse union will provide it. I was actually working for a while without being in a union assuming my employer covered me, just recently found out! Also when reregistering with AHPRA it asks if your covered. I think each state have their own union but all come under ANF. I pay $22 a fortnight
