Psychiatric nurses play a crucial role in patient recovery processes, and their attitudes during these processes can directly influence the recovery of individuals with mental illness. However, the concept of recovery in psychiatric disorders is perceived differently among nurses, which, in turn, can affect the patient's recovery trajectory. This study aims to explore and investigate the perspectives, thoughts and experiences of nurses working in psychiatric clinics about recovery in mental illnesses.
The study was conducted between September and December 2021 at a Mental and Neurological Illness Hospital. This research is a qualitative study employing conventional content analysis, with data collected during the same period. Fifteen psychiatric nurses were selected as participants using the snowball sampling method. Data collection was carried out through individual, in-depth and semi-structured interviews. Data were analyzed according to the approach outlined by Graneheim and Lundman (Nurse Educ Today 24(2):105-12, 2004), which facilitated the identification of participants' perspectives. MAXQDA qualitative data analysis software was used to assist with the analysis of interview data.
The analysis revealed four main themes: defining recovery, and the factors that aid recovery, roles of psychiatric nursing.
The findings indicate that psychiatric nurses are hopeful about patient recovery, stating that treatment and care, along with supporting the patient and facilitating their reintegration into the community, are essential to achieve recovery.
精神科护士在患者康复过程中发挥着关键作用，他们在这些过程中的态度会直接影响精神疾病患者的康复。然而，精神科护士对精神疾病康复概念的理解各不相同，这反过来又会影响患者的康复轨迹。本研究旨在探索和调查精神科诊所护士对精神疾病康复的观点、想法和经历。
该研究于2021年9月至12月在一家精神神经疾病医院进行。本研究是一项采用传统内容分析法的定性研究，同期收集数据。采用滚雪球抽样法选取15名精神科护士作为研究对象。通过个人深度半结构化访谈收集数据。根据Graneheim和Lundman（《今日护理教育》24(2):105 - 12, 2004）概述的方法对数据进行分析，该方法有助于识别参与者的观点。使用MAXQDA定性数据分析软件辅助分析访谈数据。
分析揭示了四个主要主题：康复的定义、促进康复的因素、精神科护理的作用。
研究结果表明，精神科护士对患者康复充满希望，指出治疗和护理，以及支持患者并促进他们重新融入社区，对于实现康复至关重要。
