dc.descriptionAbout the author: Tim Shumate is from Wichita, Kansas. He was the recipient of the John F. and Ella Hull Scholarship while a student. He is starting his career in the Wichita area in an acute care setting. In his future he sees himself becoming involved in nursing leadership and management then eventually returning to school for a Doctorate of Nursing Practice with specialization in Family Medicine. He thanks his wife Lindsay for all the time she spent editing and discussing his papers and for her continued support throughout his journey of becoming a nurse. He also credits the School of Nursing at KU for providing one of the best experiences of his life.
dc.description.abstractThe use of psychedelic drugs, such as lysergic acid diethylamide (LSD), 3,4- methylenedioxymethamphetamine (MDMA), and 4-phosphoryloxy- N,N -dimethyltryptamine (psilocybin), in the clinical treatment of mental health disorders has sparked a broad spectrum ethical debate amongst both the medical field and the general public. This is due to the negative connotations of the drugs being illegal and that they are used by subpopulations of our society for recreational use. The purpose of this paper is to discuss the positive implications of the use of the psychedelic drugs towards mental well-being of patients and explore the role of a nurse in its clinical application.
