IT STARTED AS A ROUTINE PATIENT VISIT
An experienced primary care NP evaluated a patient whose symptoms appeared relatively
low-risk.
The assessment was reasonable. The treatment plan was appropriate. The chart was completed during
a busy clinic day. Nothing seemed unusual.
Eight months later, a request for records lands in your inbox – for a visit you don’t
remember, about a patient who experienced an adverse event.
What follows isn’t a conversation about your intentions. It’s an examination
of:
- Clinical judgment
- Documentation
- Prescribing decisions
- Referrals
- Follow-up recommendations
- Clinical-reasoning
Every decision was reviewed. Every note was scrutinized. Every omission
mattered.
Because when a complaint, malpractice claim, or board investigation occurs, the question
isn't:
"What were you trying to do?"
It's:
CAN YOU DEFEND WHAT YOU DID?
Let Kristene Diggins, DNP, JD, CNE, FAANP, MBA, a Fellow of the American Association of Nurse
Practitioners and Healthcare Law Scholar, solve the risks that exist in your current practice. Few
educators possess both legal and clinical expertise. With the unique combination of experiences and
education, Dr. Diggins is going to deliver an impactful one-day presentation.
This is not another legal lecture.
This is a practical risk-management workshop designed specifically for today's nurse
practitioner.
Rather than reviewing regulations in the abstract, you'll learn how legal principles apply during
real patient encounters, using realistic clinical scenarios, landmark legal cases, malpractice
trends, and practical decision-making frameworks you can immediately apply in practice.
