The importance of Professional Liability insurance for respiratory therapists
When you’re a respiratory therapist your focus is helping people breathe easy. From the youngest patients to the very old, the variety of applications you use to provide respiratory care is based on science and good clinical technique.
Despite best practices and following strict treatment protocols, your job as a health care professional puts you at risk of a lawsuit.
Lockton Affinity Health’s Professional Liability insurance covers defense costs and judgments or settlements that result from a claim against you, plus pays you for lost wages while defending a claim. Plus, it’s tailored exclusively for respiratory therapists.

Why respiratory therapists need personal coverage
A single claim can cost thousands of dollars, interrupt your ability to continue working, and tarnish your reputation—even if you’re innocent. While you may receive liability coverage through an employer, it likely does not provide adequate protection to defend yourself against a claim.
Whether you practice in a hospital, skilled nursing facility or wellness center, the best protection for an allegation or claim against your services is your own respiratory therapy liability insurance policy.
Lockton Affinity Health’s Professional Liability insurance fully covers you for the risks of your job as a respiratory therapist.
