摘要:
This article focuses on the history of the use of therapeutic letters in the clinical scholarship of the Family Nursing Unit at the University of Calgary and offers examples of a variety of therapeutic letters written to families experiencing illness suffering. A case study from the research of Moules (2000, 2002) is offered to further illustrate the usefulness of therapeutic letters as a family nursing intervention.
