IFNA CONFERENCE NEWS
|
|
Have you ever really considered the intersection between the art and science of family nursing? For example, some researchers use art (photography, drawings, stories, music, etc.) with their participants to elicit or represent perceptions or experiences. Similarly, clinicians can use art as a form of therapy. These methods can be taught to students of family nursing. To learn more, please plan to attend the
13th International Family Nursing Conference (IFNC13) in Pamplona, Spain in 2017. Our theme will be
"
The Art and Science of Family Nursing: Transforming Health for Families
."
