ForwardHolistic Nurse Training Program - Spring
Overview
The Holistic Nurse Training Program is an immersive eight-day course designed to deepen a nurse's understanding of holistic care. This program not only explores the physical, emotional, social, and spiritual dimensions of the individual nurse but also magnifies the understanding of Holistic Nursing Care Standards for compassionate person-centered care to patients and their families. Through engaging lessons, meaningful discussions, guest speakers, hands-on activities, and a group project, nurses will gain a comprehensive view of holistic nursing principles and develop the skills to integrate them into their own self-care and nursing practice. The course will provide the nurse with the necessary Continuing Ed credits for eligibility of completing the AHNCC Holistic Nurse Certification Exam (a requirement within 6 months of course completion). Join us on this transformative journey of personal and professional growth!
