In recent years, expressions of concern about the safety of women in mixed sex wards have been noted. The purpose of this exploratory study was to give hospitalized women with a diagnosis of mental illness the opportunity to describe their experiences in mixed sex wards. A qualitative study, using focus groups, was conducted. The three major themes that emerged from the study were: (i) environment; (ii) gender; and (iii) vulnerability. The study incorporated a feminist and phenomenological perspective. In essence, the study found that although some women had experienced problems with safety, they indicated they would prefer mixed sex to single sex wards.
