A purpose of this study is to examine the concrete, continuous nursing support model for the cancer patient using complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). From the investigation for the patient who used CAM, I got three themes for nursing to support an action about CAM of the patient; [Help patient oneself realizes a mental and physical change by CAM] [Confirm that patients spend the harmonized life integrating knowledge about CAM got newly with original faith about the health] [Think about and create life with CAM reasonably together]. In addition, the cooperation with the medical team members surround patients was essential for concrete practice, and the need to clarify about the CAM use support of each member was shown.
