Complete the Holistic Nursing Module and read chapter 20 in the Blais and Hayes Textbook

· First, complete the Holistic Nursing Module and read chapter 20 in the Blais and Hayes Textbook.

· Then choose two Complimentary and/or Alternative Modalities. You will need to “sign up” for these-(see sign up in the content area) so that not everyone does the same thing and we get a variety), first come first served, don’t delay or you may not get your preferred choices.

· Next, experience both of your chosen CAMs, the experiences must be:

· completed during the term, not be experiences you have had in the past

· completed at least a week before the CAM PowerPoint is due (see calendar for due date)

· done for or on yourself and for your benefit-these cannot be modalities you have simply observed on patients or others

· Finally, Create a PowerPoint presentation to address each of the content areas listed in the below rubric. Include at least three peer-reviewed sources of literature for each modality (see the content area of D2L if you are not sure what constitutes peer-reviewed)
