This article is part of a series of articles titled "Legal Issues 101." The purpose of this series is to address common questions and misconceptions regarding the law and school health. Nurses frequently conflate malpractice or negligence with professional licensure discipline and it is important to understand the difference. To reduce liability exposure, school nurses must understand what their risks are and what they are not, for both civil lawsuits and for nursing board discipline.
