Although
students in the College of Nursing are covered for professional
liability by Rutgers, The State University of New Jersey, the New
Jersey Board of Nursing and the College of Nursing require additional
insurance coverage. Each nursing student must purchase individual
liability insurance with a minimum coverage of $1 million per single
occurrence and $6 million aggregate. This insurance can be purchased
from any vendor of choice, such as Nurses Service Organization (NSO).
It will be the student's responsibility to maintain the liability
insurance yearly throughout their tenure at the college. Only a copy of
the liability insurance face sheet is to be submitted yearly to the
Office of Student Affairs.
