Abstract

Social media is one convenient way to express ourselves. Much information is offered; most is difficult to filter and can be consumed by anyone, anywhere, anytime. However, sometimes it crosses the boundaries of someone else’s life or privacy, especially when discussing sensitive issues, such as mental health problems. There are a lot of discussions about whether bringing the personal experiences of people with mental health problems to the public domain can potentially increase the community’s attitudes toward them or not. Still, one thing is for sure, this kind of content has caught public attention by having more viewers. Unfortunately, it potentially brings other consequences for people with mental health problems, such as stigmatization, discrimination, and sadfishing. Therefore, this paper aims to provide the viewpoints of psychiatric nurses regarding how to address mental health-related issues and appropriately put content about mental health problems on social media.

Abstract

Background: The recovery-oriented service concept has been recognized for its impact on mental health practices and services. As the largest group of mental healthcare providers, mental health nurses are well-positioned to deliver recovery-oriented services but face challenges due to role ambiguity and identity issues. Therefore, clarifying the role and principles of mental health nursing is essential. Objective: This study aimed to identify essential nursing practices for individuals with schizophrenia in recovery-oriented mental health services. Design: The study utilized a five-step integrative review approach, including problem identification, literature search definition, critical analysis of methodological quality, data analysis, and data presentation. Data Sources: Multiple databases, such as ScienceDirect and Scopus, as well as online libraries and journals/publishers, including Sage journals, APA PsyNet, SpringerLink, PsychiatryOnline, Taylor & Francis Online, and Wiley Online Library, were searched. The search spanned from the inception of the recovery-oriented services concept in 1993 to 2022. Review Methods: Content and thematic analysis were employed to analyze and synthesize the findings from the included studies. Results: Twenty-four articles met the inclusion criteria. Two themes were identified: 1) Direct nursing care, consisting of six sub-themes: therapeutic nurse-patient relationship (TNPR), psychoeducation (PE), coping skill training (CST), cognitive behavioral techniques (CBT), interventions to improve medication adherence (IMA), and social functioning (SF); and 2) Indirect nursing care. Conclusion: This study highlights the crucial role of nursing and nursing practices in recovery-oriented services. Mental health nurses prioritize person-centered care, therapeutic relationships, and collaboration with peer support workers to enhance treatment effectiveness. In addition, they focus on improving medication adherence, providing coping support, and promoting social capabilities, ultimately improving individuals’ quality of life. Aligning actions with recovery-oriented principles, mental health nurses emphasize empowerment and holistic care. Further research in this area will enhance the healthcare system and better support individuals on their recovery journey.

Abstract

Background: Adolescent problem behavior in research and practice has been traditionally categorized as Oppositional Deviant Disorder and Conduct Disorder. However, a significant number of adolescents remain underdiagnosed. To address this issue, the term “Conduct Problem” has emerged as a commonly used descriptor for those who have not yet received a formal diagnosis, particularly within the community. It is crucial for nurses to comprehend the characteristics of these conduct problems to address them effectively. Objective: This concept analysis aimed to clarify the concept of conduct problems among adolescents aged 14 to 16, specifically within community settings. Methods: The concept analysis followed Walker and Avant’s approach. The usage of the concept was examined in five databases (PsyINFO, ProQuest, PubMed, ScienceDirect, Scopus), which yielded 41 relevant studies for comprehensive analysis. Results: The identified attributes of conduct problems in adolescents included oppositional problems, antisocial problems, and criminal-related problems. These conduct problems were found to have antecedents stemming from personal, parental, and environmental factors. Furthermore, the consequences of conduct problems significantly impacted both middle adolescents and their parents. Conclusion: The findings of this concept analysis contribute to a better comprehension of the concept of conduct problems among middle adolescents in community settings. The insights gained from this analysis will assist in using this term more effectively in research and nursing practice, ultimately leading to improved care and support for affected adolescents and their families.
