Attitudes Among Nurses Toward the Integration of Complementary Medicine Into Supportive Cancer Care
PURPOSE/OBJECTIVES: To explore the attitudes of nurses treating patients with cancer regarding the use of complementary and integrative medicine (CIM) therapies to reduce symptoms and improve quality of life (QOL).
.
DESIGN: Prospective and descriptive.
.
SETTING: 12 hospital and community care settings in Israel.
.
SAMPLE: 973 nurses working in oncology and non-oncology departments.
.
METHODS: A 26-item questionnaire was administered to a convenience sample of nurses treating patients with cancer.
.
MAIN RESEARCH VARIABLES: Interest in CIM integration and training in supportive cancer care.
.
FINDINGS: Of the 973 nurses who completed the questionnaire, 934 expressed interest in integrating CIM into supportive cancer care. A logistic regression model indicated that nurses with a greater interest in integration tended to be older, believed that CIM improved patients' QOL, and had no structured postgraduate oncology training. Nurses who believed CIM to be beneficial for QOL-related outcomes were more likely to express interest in related training. The goals of such training include improving QOL-related outcomes, such as anxiety, insomnia, gastrointestinal symptoms, and pain.
.
CONCLUSIONS: Most nurses working with patients with cancer are interested in the integration of CIM into supportive cancer care.
.
IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING: Most nurses would like to undergo training in CIM to supplement conventional care. CIM-trained integrative nurses can help promote the integration of patient-centered CIM therapies in supportive cancer care settings.
