HPAP Evaluation Committee

The SDBON's Health Professionals Assistance Program (HPAP) is designed for licensed nurses and nursing students who need case management and monitoring when unable to practice with reasonable skill or safety, or whose practice poses a risk to the public, when the nurse's mental health or substance use related issue or disorder is not appropriately managed. 

The Board contracts with Midwest Health Management Services to conduct the HPAP and to convene the Board's Evaluation Committee to assist with evaluating and making recommendations on participant enrollment in the program.
