Healing with humor.
Abstract
A sense of humor can be a positive coping tool in times of stress, illness, and pain. Perioperative nurses are in the unique position to assess the patient's ability to cope and to suggest and model a repertoire of coping strategies that use humor. This article also explores self-care knowledge and ways that nurses can tap into their own resource potential for healing through humor.
