Mental health challenges are a leading health issue, and while nurses should be well positioned to provide care to this client population, nurses are not adequately prepared for this role during their education. This qualitative narrative inquiry explored nursing students' (N = 15) experiences within their mental health practicums. Analyzed through Foucault's concept of micropower, participants' narratives illustrate that students observed nurses holding power over patients, and enacted resistance to this power in a complex interplay of empowerment and disempowerment. Study findings speak to the need for systemic shifts in mental health practice and ongoing educator support of students in mental health practicums.
心理健康挑战是一个主要的健康问题,虽然护士理应能够为这类患者群体提供护理,但护士在接受教育期间并未为该角色做好充分准备。这项质性叙事探究考察了15名护理专业学生在心理健康实习中的经历。通过福柯的微观权力概念进行分析,参与者的叙述表明,学生们观察到护士对患者拥有权力,并在赋权与去权的复杂相互作用中对这种权力进行了抵制。研究结果表明,心理健康实践需要系统性转变,并且教育工作者需要持续支持学生进行心理健康实习。
