Development and Refinement of the Nursing Program for Cancer Patients who use Complementary and Alternative Medicine

本研究旨在探讨辅助替代医学（CAM）对癌症患者的具体、持续护理支持模式。从对使用CAM的患者的调查中，我得到了三个护理主题来支持患者的CAM行动；【通过CAM帮助患者自身实现身心的改变】【结合CAM新获得的知识与原有的健康信念，确认患者过上和谐的生活】【与CAM一起合理思考和创造生活】。此外，围绕患者与医疗团队成员的合作对于具体实践至关重要，并且需要明确每个成员对CAM使用的支持。

A purpose of this study is to examine the concrete, continuous nursing support model for the cancer patient using complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). From the investigation for the patient who used CAM, I got three themes for nursing to support an action about CAM of the patient; [Help patient oneself realizes a mental and physical change by CAM] [Confirm that patients spend the harmonized life integrating knowledge about CAM got newly with original faith about the health] [Think about and create life with CAM reasonably together]. In addition, the cooperation with the medical team members surround patients was essential for concrete practice, and the need to clarify about the CAM use support of each member was shown.
