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. Bibliography lists 1 source.
