NURS 03408Holistic Nurse Self-Reflection and Self-Care

Catalog

This course applies content and strategies to develop lifestyle practices required of holistic practitioners. Holistic nursing requires developing consciousness of one's inner being, the capacity for supporting one's well-being, and a commitment to personal self-healing as an ethic of care. The Scope and Standards of Practice of the Holistic Nurses Association and the American Nurses Association acknowledges that self-development as a lifestyle pattern is foundational to fully practice from a caring science/unitary philosophy and to be competent in the creation of healing environments.
