Dr. Christine Debourdeau, graduated in aromatherapy, established a Local Committee for Practical Aromatherapy (CLAP) in 2017 to develop the use of essential oils in complementary care in the palliative care unit. She conducted in 2020 a clinical study HECAT: Essential Oils in Treated Adult Constipation with the inclusion of 10 patients. She wishes to complete this study with new inclusions in 2023.
The grant will finance the university training of two nurses in clinical aromatherapy to further develop the practice and protocols for patients.
