護理人員有其法定之執業範圍，如逾越該執業範圍，進而踩到醫師執業範圍之紅線，可能觸犯密醫罪。密醫罪之類型有二：（一）護理人員執行應由醫師親自執行之醫療行為；（二）護理人員未獲醫師指示，擅自執行醫療輔助行為。礙於護理人員之養成教育較欠缺護理法律知識之傳遞，護理人員對自身之執業範圍與密醫罪類型之瞭解十分有限，本文欲以二則司法實務判決－雷射案與注射案－說明護理人員所觸犯之密醫罪，期待護理人員能瞭解自身之執業範圍並以此二案例為借鏡，避免誤觸密醫罪。

Nurses have their scope of practice. If a nurse practices out of scope of practice, he or she may commit the ＂physician without license＂ crime. The ＂physician without license＂ crime includes the following two types: (1) the nurses practice the medical act, and (2) the nurses practice the assisting medical act without the physician's order. The nurses are in lack of the knowledge of legal aspects, so they do not well understand their scope of practice and what the ＂physician without license＂ crime is. The purpose of this paper is introduce two judicial decisions with regard to that nurses commit the ＂physician with license ＂crime. It is hope that the nurse can gain a better understanding of their scope of practice and not to commit the ＂physician without license＂ crime.
