Why the Conscious Nurse Project?

In British Columbia, nurses are bound by their Standards of Practice and Code of Ethics to support their physical, emotional, mental, and spiritual health to maintain fitness to practice.

The Canadian Nurses Association Code of Ethics (2017) defines health as “… a state of complete physical, mental (spiritual), and social well-being, not merely the absence of disease” (p.23). This speaks to the importance of holistic self-care.

Holistic approaches to health acknowledge the existence and interactive relationship between all dimensions of the human experience.

The main objective of the Conscious Nurse Project is to support nurses in embodying holistic self-care by

  • introducing holistic self-care concepts,
  • providing and teaching how to use a holistic self-assessment tool,
  • teaching basic holistic self-care practices,
  • facilitating development of holistic self-care plans that are individualized and effective.
