There is a growing interest among health care providers, especially professional nurses to promote caring-healing approaches in patient care and self-care. Health care environments are places of human caring and holistic nurses are helping to lead the way that contemporary health care institutions must become holistic places of healing. The practice of Reiki as well as other practices can assist in the creation of this transformative process. Abington Memorial Hospital (AMH) in Abington, Pennsylvania is a Magnet-designated health care facility with an Integrative Medicine Services Department. AMH's Integrative Medicine staff focuses on the integration of holistic practices, such as Reiki into traditional patient care. Reiki services at AMH were initiated about 10 years ago through the efforts of a Reiki practitioner/nurse and the vision that healing is facilitated through the nurturing of the mind, body, and spirit for healing and self-healing. AMHs-sustained Reiki program includes Reiki treatments and classes for patients, health care providers, and community members. This program has evolved to include a policy and annual competency for any Reiki-trained nurse and other employees to administer Reiki treatments at the bedside.
医疗保健提供者，尤其是专业护士，对在患者护理和自我护理中推广关爱-治愈方法的兴趣与日俱增。医疗保健环境是充满人文关怀的场所，整体护理护士正引领着当代医疗机构迈向整体治愈场所的道路。灵气疗法以及其他疗法有助于推动这一变革进程。宾夕法尼亚州阿宾顿的阿宾顿纪念医院（AMH）是一家获得磁铁认可的医疗保健机构，设有综合医学服务部。AMH的综合医学工作人员专注于将灵气疗法等整体疗法融入传统患者护理中。大约10年前，在一名灵气疗法从业者/护士的努力以及通过滋养身心和精神以促进治愈和自我治愈的愿景推动下，AMH开展了灵气疗法服务。AMH持续开展的灵气疗法项目包括为患者、医疗保健提供者和社区成员提供灵气疗法治疗和课程。该项目已发展到包括一项政策以及要求任何接受过灵气疗法培训的护士和其他员工在床边进行灵气疗法治疗的年度能力考核。
