INMO Professional Indemnity: Who Qualifies and What You Get
Discover how registered nurses and midwives in Ireland access legal protection, indemnity insurance, and union support through the INMO.
This scheme provides professional protection, insurance, and representation for nursing and midwifery professionals through membership in the union.
Who it's for
This scheme is specifically designed for individuals who are registered nurses or midwives. If you hold these professional registrations, you are eligible to join the organization to access these protections.
What you get
By joining, you gain access to professional indemnity insurance, which is designed to provide coverage related to your professional practice. In addition to insurance, you receive legal representation if you face professional challenges and ongoing support from the union to assist with your career and workplace needs.
What it costs you
Membership is not free. You are required to pay a monthly subscription fee. The specific amount you pay is not a single fixed rate for everyone; instead, the cost is determined by your professional grade within the healthcare system.
The catch to know
The most common mistake members make is failing to update their membership details when they receive a promotion or a change in their professional role. Because your subscription fee is tied to your specific grade, you must ensure your membership status is current to avoid issues with your coverage or your billing.
How to apply
- Navigate to the official organization website.
- Locate the membership section to view the available options for registered professionals.
- Complete the registration process by providing your professional details and grade.
- Set up your monthly subscription to ensure your indemnity and support remain active.
