What is TERCAP? It the Taxonomy of Error , Root Cause Analysis and Practice- Responsibility. The TERCAP project was implemented in 1999 by National Council of State Boards of Nursing Board of Directors (http://www.ncsbn.org) who appointed a task force to develop new knowledge about the causes of nursing practice breakdown. TERCAP was designed as an intake instrument for capturing data from nursing boards' discipline cases. It creates an opportunity for consistent data collection and future analysis of compiled data by NCSBN and Member Boards. The NCSBN Research Department will have access to the data submitted by participating Member Boards for the purpose of research through data analysis. Only Member Boards participating in TERCAP will have access to the TERCAP reports, cases, and data until such time as there are a sufficient number of cases to prepare formal reports that will be published. The Kentucky Board of Nursing Consumer Protection Branch, Investigation and Discipline Section, is a participating Member Board of the National Council of State Boards of Nursing TERCAP project.
