Since psychiatric community services were legalised by the promulgation of the Mental Health Act no 18 of 1973 shift to primary mental Health Care has occurred. This change resulted in an increase in psychiatric patients within the community, and because of this increase the workload of the psychiatric community nurse became heavier. This higher expectation might cause pressure for the psychiatric community nurse and therefore influence her therapeutic relationship with her patient negatively. It was therefore important that the work experience of the psychiatric community nurse should be explored and described in order to formulate guidelines to mobilise resources to promote, maintain and restore the mental health of the psychiatric community nurse. A exploratory, descriptive contextual study was done with the aim of achieving insight into the internal environment experiences of the psychiatric community nurse working in the psychiatric community. In depth exploration was achieved by way of the phenomological method of interviewing to obtain data.
自1973年第18号《精神健康法》颁布使精神科社区服务合法化以来，已转向初级精神卫生保健。这一变化导致社区内精神科患者数量增加，由于这一增长，精神科社区护士的工作量变得更重。这种更高的期望可能给精神科社区护士带来压力，从而对她与患者的治疗关系产生负面影响。因此，探索和描述精神科社区护士的工作经历非常重要，以便制定指导方针，调动资源来促进、维持和恢复精神科社区护士的心理健康。为了深入了解在精神科社区工作的精神科社区护士的内部环境体验，进行了一项探索性、描述性的情境研究。通过现象学访谈方法进行深入探索以获取数据。
