    Abstract:
    OBJECTIVES: To review written resources disclosing reliable facts and knowledge in cancer complementary and alternative medicine (CAM). DATA SOURCES: Conventional and biomedical and complementary and alternative medicine journals, electronic media, full text databases, electronic resources, and newsletters. CONCLUSION: Sources of CAM information are numerous. The inherent quality of this information fluctuates. High-quality sources of cancer CAM information are available and accessible for health care providers. IMPLICATIONS FOR NURSING PRACTICE: As the use of CAM therapies becomes more commonplace in consumer health care, it is critical that health care providers are cognizant of available sources of high-quality CAM facts and knowledge and possess the ability to discuss this information with colleagues and consumers in the scientific and lay communities.
