Teaching accelerated nursing students' self-care: A pilot project.

ABSTRACT:

Aim

A benchmark of 4 has been determined for the reduction of self-reported stress by nursing students' status post 5 weeks of holistic educational activities and interventions provided by a nurse educator.

Design

Provision 5 in the American Nurses Association Code of Ethics for Nurses with Interpretive Statements emphasizes the duty of the nurse to not only promote the health and safety of others, but to self as well (ANA, 2015, Code of ethics with interpretive statements, http://Nursebooks.org). A self-care for nurses' pilot project was trialled with 25 accelerated nursing students over the course of 5 weeks. Holistic education programmes were facilitated by a nurse educator uninvolved in providing clinical or classroom education to the students.
