The recent events that transpired in the for-profit psychiatric hospital industry in which hospitals were alleged to engage in practices which ranged from unethical to illegal underscore the importance of examining the contexts of nursing practice. A wide range of environmental factors and unchallenged assumptions may influence the care of clients and may become obstacles to effective and ethical nursing practice. Critical social theory offers nursing a potentially valuable tool from which to illuminate and examine otherwise unexamined aspects of the environment.
营利性精神病医院行业最近发生的一些事件表明，这些医院被指控存在从不道德到非法的行为，这凸显了审视护理实践背景的重要性。各种各样的环境因素和未经质疑的假设可能会影响对患者的护理，并可能成为有效且符合道德规范的护理实践的障碍。批判社会理论为护理提供了一个潜在的有价值的工具，可借此阐明和审视环境中其他未被审视的方面。
