This webinar covers the issue of substance use and abuse in the nursing profession. Substance abuse is the number one reason named by state boards of nursing for disciplinary action (Sullivan & Decker, 2001). For this reason alone, the subject warrants further discussion and consideration by all nurses.
After this webinar the attendee will be able to:
1. Discuss the prevalance of addiction amoung nurses compared to the general population;
2. Review the use of prescription medication use and abuse in nursing;
3. Identify the role of State Nursing Boards in the recognition and treatment of nurses who abuse legal and illegal substances.
The presenter is Jack Stem. Jack whose professional and personal life came crashing down when his addiction surfaced after years of treating a chronic pain condition, is a former health care professional. With a career which began as an orderly in a busy emergency room 38 years ago, he went on to become a Registered Nurse in that same ER, and later became a Certified Registered Nurse Anesthetist (CRNA). Today, clean and sober over 15 years, he acts as a peer advisor for Ohio's nurse anesthetists and consults with attorneys practicing in nursing license defense. Mr. Stem is the Founder and CEO of Peer Advocacy for Impaired Nurses, LLC, which provides assistance to nurses with substance use disorders. The one-on-one personal recovery assistance which he delivers to professionals who want to take their recovery to the next level is held in high regard by his clients and colleagues.
The webinar is moderated by LaTonia Denise Wright, RN, BSN, JD.
The cost of the 60 minute webinar is $20.00. See http://nursing-jurisprudence.com/substanceusewebinars.html. |
