Abstract
Donnelly comments that stress, depression, and the short-term, soothing effects of alcohol can be a lethal combination for nurses--lethal to health, career, and family relationships. The American Nurses Association has vigorously advocated for an alternative to discipline approach for nurses who are willing to confront their problem and enter programs of intervention. Peer assistance programs offered by state nursing associations are especially helpful because the Mental Health Parity Act related to inclusions in employee health benefits does not apply to benefits for substance abuse or chemical dependency.
