Professional
Development for Nurses
Nurses
engage in a unique relationship within the health care system
where they are invited to embody a caring-healing consciousness
that forms the framework for relationship-centered care and
inspired leadership.
We provide
professional development programs that support and facilitate
the healing work of nurses along with creating an opportunity
to develop the knowledge base and skill-building required
of integrative nursing and complementary/alternative modalities
(CAM) within an evidence-based practice model.
Integral
within all of the nurse continuing education programs offered
through The BirchTree Center is the common thread of ‘caring
for the caregiver’. We recognize the stressful intensity
of nursing practice and emphasize the importance of maintaining
self-care routines. Our faculty intentionally create a relaxed
learning environment within our programs that fosters self-care
activities.

Integrative
Healing Arts Program: A Certificate Program for Nurses

order to care for others, we must first nurture ourselves.
This program re-inforces that principle and reminded me of
the joy that is nursing.”
