Members of the Peer Assistance Advisors Committee (PAAC) lead the AANA peer support network of State Peer Advisors (SPAs) nationwide. The network provides assistance and options for resources to nurse anesthetists and student nurse anesthetists facing substance use disorder (SUD) issues. PAAC also advocates for AANA members and the public on issues regarding practitioner well-being as it pertains to nurse anesthetists’ and students’ risk for SUD. The work is committed to educational endeavors and aggressive promotion of prevention modalities; committee members offer confidential assistance, informational support and referral resources in the formulation of guidelines for early recognition, intervention, treatment, long-term recovery, and appropriate re-entry.

Peer Advocacy for Impaired Nurses, LLC was founded in order to assist nurses and nursing students struggling with substance abuse and chemical dependence. Despite the fact that the World Health Organization acknowledged alcoholism as a serious medical problem in 1951, and the American Medical Association declared alcoholism as a treatable illness in 1956, the chemically dependent individual is still seen as immoral and weak willed. The health care community also continues say it's a disease while refusing to treat addicts. Insurance providers also limit or deny claims for treatment and follow-up care. While physicians have made progress in dealing with this disease in their colleagues, nursing continues to treat their colleagues with disdain.
