Learn about malpractice vulnerabilities in nursing and discuss strategies to mitigate risk and improve patient safety. Nurses are dedicated to providing the highest level of care to their patients. However, despite this commitment, errors may still occur. Breakdowns in communication, failure to escalate concern, and failure to rescue patients are all areas where nurses may be vulnerable to risk.
