Showcasing therapies to Taiwanese nurses

Last month Team LUHFT welcomed nursing and therapy colleagues from Taiwan during their UK visit to explore the holistic and complementary therapies offered to patients and staff.

The delegation party led by Dr Shwu-Feng Tsay, Chief Nurse for Taiwan’s Ministry of Health and Welfare, visited the Health and Wellbeing Centre in the Linda McCartney building. They were hosted by Corporate Director of Nursing Fiona Murphy, as well as Health and Wellbeing colleagues and staff from Macmillan Cancer services.

During the visit, the party were particularly interested to understand how others deliver reflexology as well as sharing their own methods, approaches to training and regulation of reflexologists and the use of reflexology in healthcare.
