This is an exploratory study using qualitative methods to investigate and highlight psychosocial needs as perceived by individuals who have survived an attempted suicide through self-poisoning. Respondents consisted of a convenience sample of six people (three male and three female). Data were collected through interviews and analysed using the principles of content analysis devised by Field and Morse. Major needs identified include the need to be loved, the need to maintain a high level of self-esteem, the need to have control of one's life and the need to be supported. Findings indicate that these needs are not being met by the current mental health care delivery system. In addition, nurses must begin to pay greater attention to assessment and planning of care for this group of patients. A wider use of psychosocial therapies such as crisis intervention and family therapy are urgently required. Above all there is a need for more in-depth understanding and improved communication with patients who have attempted suicide by self-poisoning.
这是一项探索性研究,采用定性方法来调查并突出那些通过自我中毒自杀未遂者所感知到的心理社会需求。受访者是一个由六人组成的便利样本(三名男性和三名女性)。数据通过访谈收集,并运用菲尔德和莫尔斯设计的内容分析原则进行分析。确定的主要需求包括被爱的需求、维持高度自尊的需求、掌控自己生活的需求以及获得支持的需求。研究结果表明,当前的心理健康护理提供系统未能满足这些需求。此外,护士必须开始更加关注对这组患者的护理评估和规划。迫切需要更广泛地使用心理社会疗法,如危机干预和家庭治疗。最重要的是,需要对通过自我中毒自杀未遂的患者有更深入的理解并改善与他们的沟通。
