RISNA Substance Abuse Prevention Program 2011

"The Rhode Island Nurses' Association (RISNA) Substance Abuse Prevention Program goes far beyond providing nurses, faculty, students and employers with usable information about substance use disorders in nursing professionals. The tool-kit's outline of pre-emptive strategies, recommendation of ongoing self appraisal of risk factors and memorable portrayal of both the devastation of substance use disorders and the remarkable, long-term recovery of nurses from such disorders marks this endeavor as the most comprehensive nursing initiative of its kind."
