Mental health and brain health are huge national topics in the media today. As nurses, we are often on the sidelines for national, state, and local policy change, but at our patients’ side (or bedside) during their times of suffering. Dementia comes to mind when thinking of changing healthcare landscape.
What are some functional medicine practices that could be promoted to improve this situation or patient circumstances? What role can a nurse play in this change?
Research your chosen topic(Dementia) and associated functional medicine interventions. Next, find out who your local or state representative might be that could benefit from this information.
