Integrating psilocybin therapy as a tool in caring for patients has a long way to go. This is demonstrated in a study by researchers with the University of Virginia School of Nursing, who examined challenges in this field. “As discussions of psychedelics are generally not incorporated in traditional medical, pharmacy, chaplaincy, or nursing curricula, our study emphasizes the importance of educating both current and future health care professionals on the physical, psychological, and existential effects of psychedelics,” the authors wrote.
