What healthcare job is least likely to risk a lawsuit?

I know Doctors pay a hefty sum for malpractice insurance, but are nurses likely to get sued as well? What job in the healthcare industry is least likey to get sued for malpractice? Please no desk jobs like medical transcriptions or coding.


Hospitals carry liability insurance for their nurses. It is unlikely that a nurse will get sued unless she/he does something very deliberate and intentional to harm a patient.

There are none. All are risky.
