Mental Health Nursing

What is Mental Health Nursing?

Mental healthcare is becoming an increasingly highly recognised issue over the past few years which has been heightened with the ongoing Covid-19 pandemic. There are now a huge amount of mental health campaigns and charities promoting the acceptance of mental health struggles and assisting with help and rehabilitation programs. Assisting with mental health illness requires patience and expert care for the potential risks involved with patients suffering with their mental health.

Our Mental Healthcare Nurses

Our mental health nurses are all specially trained professionals with a good knowledge of ill mental health theory. They apply this knowledge in practice and are warm and empathetic in order to put suffering patients at ease. Unity Healthcare nurses are experienced and trained in the potential risks that come with their care position. Due to the nature of a patient’s state of mind and depending on their condition, there is the potential for patients to become violent with their healthcare professionals. Mental health nurses and healthcare professionals are trained to observe and communicate with patients who show building levels of tension and have the necessary skills to diffuse the situation if required.
