Safe harbor peer review

It is a nursing peer review process that a nurse may initiate when asked to engage in an assignment or conduct that the nurse believes in good faith would potentially result in a violation of the Nursing Practice Act (NPA).

Explanation:

A nurse is free to invoke safe harbor at any time during their shift, including if an assignment changes along the way. To invoke safe harbor, the nurse must notify the supervisor in writing that they are invoking safe harbor.
