    • To assess the current understanding and practice of nursing peer review among nurses.
    • To identify barriers to the implementation of nursing peer review.
    • To describe efforts to initiate nursing peer review in a USAF medical center.

    Main Methods:

    • A survey was conducted among 60 eligible nurses across various in-house units at a USAF medical center.
    • The sample included nurses with diverse military grades and educational backgrounds.

  • Data collected focused on prior participation and perceptions of nursing peer review.

    • Main Results:

    • Only six out of 60 surveyed nurses had participated in peer review.
    • Previous participation occurred in educational settings, not clinical practice.
    • The majority of nurses surveyed had no experience with peer review in their practice.

    Conclusions:

    • There is a significant gap in the practice and understanding of nursing peer review among nurses.
    • Initiation of nursing peer review requires targeted education and implementation strategies.
    • Further efforts are needed to integrate peer review into clinical nursing practice for quality assurance.
