The National Training Centre's code of ethics insists that all Taping and Strapping Procedures graduates who are actively working in the profession, hold a professional indemnity insurance policy which covers the therapist against legal action taken by a patient as a result of an injury received during treatment. Graduates who are working on private premises may also need to hold public liability insurance.
