Why do you need cover?
Since July 2014 all registered physiotherapists have been required to have professional indemnity insurance in place to qualify for inclusion on the Health and Care Professions Council register. Furthermore, in the vast majority of cases the Council for Physiotherapy also requires that its members have a suitable level of cover – although it does not check this until the point of any claim.
There are many possible situations in which a client or member of the public could sustain injury or property damage while in your care or on your premises, from the general and mundane – for example, slips and trips – to the more specific – such as negligence relating to the failure to identify a serious condition – so it is advisable that physios have both professional indemnity and public liability cover.
Physiotherapists with one or more employees have further insurance considerations. For example, employers are responsible for the acts and omissions of their employees and need to indemnify accordingly. In addition, they are legally obliged to ensure protection from accident and injury involving their employees and as such must also have employer’s liability insurance in place.
