Abstract

NPs are conscientious providers, but when it comes to their own careers, they may not be as careful to apply the same prevention strategies, monitoring, and hypervigilance that they use with their patients to avoid poor outcomes. This article identifies potential risks in employment contracts and offers suggestions for avoiding disputes.
