Palliative Care, Hospice Care, and Homeopathy -- a Nursing Perspective: Healing Through Homeopathy
Palliative Care and Hospice are integral components of the conventional medical model, often becoming familiar to us when loved ones are chronically ill with end-stage diseases. Within this model, a team of providers, including registered nurses and nurse practitioners, play a crucial role in guiding patients and families through the complexities of care. Nurses serve as navigators, caregivers, and educators, ensuring that patients receive compassionate and informed support.
Some nurses, particularly those specializing in hospice care, are trained and certified in complementary and alternative modalities. These hospice nurses bring their expertise to the bedside, offering alternative treatment methods when patients and families express interest.
Frank Russo will explore the distinctions between palliative care and hospice, highlighting the alternative modalities provided by nurses. He will examine the nursing scope of practice in relation to homeopathy, as well as the complementary and alternative medicines that nurses and nurse practitioners often incorporate into patient care.
