Good question. The problem is that nursing is so varied as it can be outside the hospital too. Even in the hospital environment, it can be very varied. For example, compare ER nursing to Psych...
As far as my understanding goes with spiritual distress, any nurse can detect it base on the nursing diagnosis description (it does not matter if you are an atheist). In terms of action, often on the...
Actually there are all those paranormal stuff in psychology which is suppose to be "science". Do ghosts belong to relm of science? Or do they belong to the relm of philosophies/cosmology/religions?...
I think that is just description of the energy field (am I right?). It is like describing a person's breathing - shallow, rapid, and 24/min. Probably to most pragmatic variable we want to look at...
Good point. Especially about being aware of the context that this question is raised as it might require different depth of expertise. Also good point about one probably has some opinion base on...
Miscommunication on my part. I am not from Indian (you might be confused with it because I did a small paper on Raja Yoga which is Indian way back in the dianosaur age). I grew up in Asia, in Hong...
Oh, ok... I think I understand your question better now. As I mentioned before, I have not spoken to a TT practitioner period. I know a brief history of TT (very brief), that it was developed by...
Hmmm.. maybe it is not the season yet. There maybe another season later on. Remember that nurse who got her RN at 60. If you ended going to school after 60, then look at it this way, you are going...
The textbook "The Practice of Nursing Research" 4th ed grannynurse referenced a while back has some interesting stuff as I was just scanning it for fun (please rngreenhorn, do not try another informal...
What I am saying is that the TT nursing diagnosis can be view (whether rightly or wrongly) as a step of toward making it legit in the nursing world by bypassing the normal evidence base process. As I...
If you have a chance, visit the UC Berkeley campus also. What else, you go up the mountina from the campus and there is a garden and if you keep going up, there is a science museum (and a GREAT view...
Hmmmm... that might explain some of the studies I saw. I was wondering a while... like don't they care... if this is really accurate, then they would not care. In the West, maybe. Guess it is...
Try the male nursing forum or male nursing student forum :) Seriously, the male nursing related forum have females in there. The local univerity nursing school where I go has a male nursing club....
I forgot where I read it... somewhere at allnurses.com I think. Anyway, one psych nurse had two Moses (I think) in the same room. They were argueing and the nurse trying to de-esculate and ended up...
I don't think they can usually because they are not in power. But it is still possible as they are getting more powerful. However the alter energy nursing diagnosis could be interpreted as a sneaky...
I don't know... is that true? Anecdotly, in my experience, sometimes it is true and sometimes it is not. If you are talking about the alternatively stuff, the local Kaiser where I am has an...
No you are not too old. However, you could be nuts if you go back to pharmaceutical sales as a nurse after you graduate. Also you could be nuts if you make 6 figures again after nursing school by...
This reminded me actually of when I was taking Aikido (which deals with energy stuff a lot). Everyone in the class can "extend" their energy it seemed, and I remember there is a great pressure for me...
You brought up a few good points. Evidence base approach is important. But a good question is - what should be evaluated by evidence base approach and what should not? So should TT be evaluated by...
I hope this thread inspires you to have a passion on many different nursing subjects. However, I sincerely hope this thread does not inspire you to become a statistician as we need more nurses, not...
In the nursing priority 3 under the intervention of the Alter Energy Field diagnosis, it says "... Fundamental focus of TT is on healing and wholeness, not curing signs and symptoms of disease" It...
