About The Division. The Civil Rights Division of the Department of Justice, created in 1957 by the enactment of the Civil Rights Act of 1957, works to uphold the civil and constitutional rights of all Americans, particularly some of the most vulnerable members of our society.
The American Holistic Nurses Association defines holistic nursing as âall nursing practice that has healing the whole person as its goal.â This ideal of caring for the entire person, not just their physical body, is one that dates back to Florence Nightingale herself.
While patients need psychiatric/mental health nurses to support their recovery, psychiatric/mental health nurses need patients to develop skills and experience. Psychiatric nurses convey themselves as team members or facilitators of the relationship, rather than the leaders.
