Beskrivning

Anthroposophic nursing care connects the treatment of the body with the care of the patient's soul and spirit. Attention is paid to touch, using warmth, cold air and light to promote healing. While physical wellbeing is central to our modern society, our bodies actually receive little respect and attention, especially when we become ill and old. This book argues that nursing values need to be rediscovered which respect the individual, embrace illness as part of life, and allow time for healing. Anthroposophic Nursing Practice highlights a form of nursing which is both holistic and optimistic. This important book gathers together knowledge and perspectives from generations of nurses, including Anna Wilde, Bernhard Deckers and Heikie Schaumann.This comprehensive work will inevitably become the classic text on the important practice of anthroposophic nursing.
