Recent mental health policy has focused on developing community-based services, but the reality remains that patients experiencing acute episodes of illness are mainly cared for in hospital settings. Acute Mental Health Nursing has been developed as a guide to the core knowledge and skills required for working in inpatient settings.

'Comprehensively tackles a range of key issues that the student or advanced practitioner in acute mental health nursing will face… I recommend this book, which will provide a useful resource for anyone interested in this important area of nursing' - Journal of Community Nursing

An easy to read and understand text which is supported by up to date theories and resources. I specifically like the discussion and reflection points used throughout the book.I like the fact that it emphasises the core skills, values and knowledge base necessary to become a capable mental heath nurse
