appropriate manner and environment. This 3 page paper

Review of “Awakening the Nurse Healer Within” :
A 4 page paper discussing the article by Carol Wells-Federman.
The author presents solid reasons that the mainstream nurse
need not view the holistic approach as something totally foreign
or irreconcilable to the training received in order to gain the
privilege of practicing nursing. In fact, she maintains that the
standard approach to nursing always has been that of
encouraging patient responsibility and offering suggestions that
incorporate mind and spirit. She shows nurses how, though
terminology differs, the approach is the same. She also
encourages them to care for themselves in the same way.
