Nursing Students‘ Views on Complementary Treatment
Keywords:
complementary treatment, tea from medicinal plants, education, nursing students, competence development strategies, integrative nursing and careAbstract
The prevalence of using complementary treatment among patients is increasing. Nursing students in other countries show positive views on complementary treatment. Various strategies to integrate the necessary information in their education have been introduced. To verify the view of nursing students, the pilot case study as a part of the project Developing competencies for implementing integrative treatment and care of the patient: „Nurse, my tea, please!“ was carried out including 82 students of nursing care at a faculty. The survey was based on a non-probability sampling and a questionnaire. The results showed the presence of positive views on complementary treatment among the nursing students as well as their drinking of tea from medicinal plants for wellbeing – for prevention and the purposes of treatment. The problem of knowledge deficit in Slovenia regarding this area was indicated, including a less critical evaluation of students’ own knowledge. A strategy for developing competences, needed for implementation of integrative nursing care, should be prepared in the system of nursing care education.
