The Role of Nursing in Psychiatric Care Discussion

Overview

I'm working on a science discussion question and need guidance to help me learn.

Discuss the role of nursing in the assessment, diagnosis, treatment, and management of patients with psychiatric disorders. 

  • What are the core competencies and skills that a psychiatric nurse should possess? 
  • How can nurses provide holistic care that addresses the physical, psychological, social, and spiritual needs of patients with mental illness?
