Abstract
The implementation of Complementary Alternative Medicine (CAM) mirrors the nurses knowledge and attitude regarding various therapies and practices outside of conventional medicine. Despite evidence proving the effectiveness of CAM, a gap exists between the knowledge and attitudes of licensed nurses and the integration of complementary alternative medicine into nursing practice.
