Review for American Holistic Nurses Association, Topeka, KS, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Holistic nursing is, to me, a philosophy and a way of being in the world. It is an expression of the art (caring, presence, relationship, intuition, communication, creativity, personal knowing) and the science (theory, research, evidence-based practice, critical thinking, reflection) that I believe are the lived experience of the profession that I love - nursing. Holistic practice is the way I choose to show up – fully present with those entrusted to my care, meeting people where they are and knowing deeply that with every encounter I receive far more than I give.

The American Holistic Nurses Association (AHNA) supports me to be that nurse every step of the way. Through numerous initiatives (eg: education, conferences, research), the AHNA creates opportunities for me - and all nurses and healthcare providers - to expand and deepen awareness and knowledge. AHNA is committed to ensuring that healthcare is grounded in caring/healing practices...they are a clear voice, advocating for whole-person, quality care that is accessible and affordable. The AHNA advocates, as well, for caregiver self-care - be it the family or the healthcare provider. Self-care is a priority!

The American Holistic Nurses Association leaders, members and staff work tirelessly with open hearts and a commitment that is deep and boundless. It is an honor to be part of this professional association.
