Registered Nurses (RNs) can integrate complementary and alternative care modalities into their practice by aligning them with nursing theory and taxonomies of care. This approach enhances holistic patient care and professional nursing standards.

Area of Science:

  • Nursing
  • Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM)

Background:

  • Growing consumer and professional interest in CAM.
  • RNs are increasingly incorporating CAM modalities into practice.
  • Questions arise regarding the scope of practice for CAM within nursing.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore how nursing theory and taxonomies of care support the integration of CAM modalities.
  • To demonstrate how professional nursing can guide the practice of CAM.

Main Methods:

  • Analysis of major nursing frameworks (Nursing Theory, Nursing Taxonomies of Care).
  • Examination of how CAM can be incorporated within a nursing context.
  • Identification of qualities (assessment, reflection, holism) professional nursing adds to CAM.

Main Results:

  • Nursing frameworks readily accommodate CAM modalities.
  • Professional nursing principles enhance the application of CAM techniques.
  • Examples illustrate the integration of CAM into professional nursing care.

Conclusions:

  • CAM can be effectively and ethically integrated into professional nursing practice.
  • Nursing theory provides a robust framework for guiding CAM.
  • This integration supports holistic patient care and expands nursing's scope.
