This paper will explore the delivery of mental health nursing care within a neo-liberal model of mental health care delivery in New Zealand. Mental health nursing as a socially constructed activity occurs within a particular political context, which determines its role and function. This environment determines the nature of the nurse-patient relationship which is integral to the role of mental health nurses. Critical analysis of the New Zealand Government's neo-liberal health policies will be conducted to explore their effect on mental health care delivery and the nurse-patient relationship. Some of the ideologies and values maintained by current dominant discourses within nursing and the State are discussed. To establish therapeutic partnerships with service-users, mental health nurses are urged to critically analyse their practice and the context in which it occurs.
本文将探讨新西兰新自由主义精神卫生保健模式下的精神卫生护理服务。精神卫生护理作为一种社会建构活动，发生在特定的政治背景中，这决定了其角色和功能。这种环境决定了护士与患者关系的性质，而这种关系对于精神卫生护士的角色至关重要。将对新西兰政府的新自由主义卫生政策进行批判性分析，以探讨其对精神卫生保健服务和护士与患者关系的影响。还将讨论护理领域和国家当前主流话语所秉持的一些意识形态和价值观。为了与服务使用者建立治疗性伙伴关系，敦促精神卫生护士批判性地分析他们的实践及其发生的背景。
