  2. Personal Perspectives • Embrace caring as the essence of holistic nursing practice. • Recognize and respect the balance of Spirit, Body, Mind. • Honor the client as expert and co partner to explore patterns to promote well being. • Ingenuity to create healing environments. • Eagerness to competently blend best practices of allopathic and complementary approaches. • Courage to be an innovator to fulfill your personal and professional hopes and dreams for the future of nursing.

  3. Public Perspectives • Changes in Health Care policy focus on wellness and prevention models of care to improve outcomes for chronic and acute care, cost containment, and access to care. • Increasing trend in the number of Americans using some form of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) for adult and child wellness. • Major insurance plans reimburse wellness and preventive care and some CAM. • The public relies on the nurse as a caring and trusted professional to guide, coach, and provide expert holistic nursing knowledge.

  4. Professional Perspectives • In 1981 the American Holistic Nurses Association (AHNA) was formed and initiated the holistic nursing movement in the United States. • In 2006, holistic nursing was recognized as an official specialty within nursing by the American Nurses Association (ANA). • Nurses with specialized knowledge of holistic nursing will find opportunities as innovators in various settings to promote integrative health.

  6. Future Perspectives • The Future of Nursing: From the 2010 document published by Institute of Medicine in collaboration with the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation. • Nurses should practice to the full extent of their educations and training. • Nurses should achieve higher levels of education and training through an improved education system that promotes seamless academic progression. • Nurses should be full partners, with physicians and other health care professionals, in redesigning health care in the United States. • Effective workforce planning and policy making better data collection and information infrastructure. • The AHN Concentration will prepare you to meet these expectations.
