Popis: Some major cancer hospitals in the United States have established a department for complementary medicine as a service to their patients. Surveys in the Netherlands have shown that notably nursing staff and consumers consider the availability of complementary therapy in health care to be very important. Nevertheless, this appears to be an undesirable development as the effectiveness of these therapies has not been demonstrated and the therapists involved might interfere with regular patient therapy.
