This activity equips nurses with the knowledge and tools to recognize and address impairment in professional settings. Impairment, whether caused by substance use, mental health challenges, or fatigue, can compromise workplace safety, productivity, and overall well-being. By understanding the signs of impairment and the steps to take when it is identified, nurses can contribute to a safer and more supportive work environment. Real-life case studies provide practical insights into how impairment can affect individuals and organizations. This activity fulfills the Florida Board of Nursing continuing education requirement on recognizing impairment.
