中央精神病院是欧洲最古老的高度安全的精神卫生服务机构之一,可追溯到1845年,但一直是最后引入(法医)精神科护士的机构之一。这篇文章描述了在爱尔兰这个高度安全的精神病院工作的精神科护士的作用。联合王国中央理事会能力框架被认为是在爱尔兰背景下开始理解这一作用的审慎起点。这项研究得到了74%的回复率,并发现爱尔兰法医精神健康护士经历了许多与他们的国际同事相同的挑战。很高比例的护理实践侧重于评估、沟通和创造一个非常符合心理健康护理主流角色的治疗环境。专家评估和处理冒犯行为的技能被认为是重要的,但在当时是不足的。恢复和人权的重要性被认为是至高无上的,但由于需要风险管理和安全而受到挑战。
The Central Mental Hospital is one of the oldest high secure mental health services in Europe dating back to 1845 but has been one of the last to introduce (forensic) psychiatric nurses. This paper describes the role of psychiatric nurses working in this high secure psychiatric facility in Ireland. The United Kingdom Central Council competency framework was considered to be a prudent starting point for beginning to understand this role in an Irish context. The study received a response rate of 74% and found that the Irish Forensic Mental Health Nurse experiences many of the same challenges as their international colleagues. A high proportion of nursing practice is focused on assessment, communication and creating a therapeutic environment based very much in keeping with the mainstream role in mental health nursing. Skills in specialist assessments and addressing offending behaviour were considered important but deficient at that time. The importance of recovery and human rights were considered paramount but challenged by the need for risk management and security.
