The objective of the project led by Alexandra Moisan, a nurse, is to integrate aromatherapy into the care of patients at home, in healthcare facilities, and in medico-social services. This project also aims to enhance the quality of life for hospital caregivers by introducing essential oil diffusers during meetings.
The hospital develops various aromatherapy protocols through diffusion and inhaler sticks to relieve anxiety, distress, sleep disorders, discomfort, and nausea for patients. 19 departments of the hospital have an aromatherapy specialist dedicated to offering optimal comfort to patients who are interested in using essential oils.
The grant funds the equipment needed to implement aromatherapy in the departments and supports two collective training sessions in aromatherapy.
