Aim: To clarify the experiences of nurses through the use of a “culturally sensitive recovery-oriented nursing care model in community psychiatric nursing” in regular visiting nursing over a 4-month period.
Methods: Seven community psychiatric nurses were asked to use the model for one client each for 4 months. After this period, semi-structured interviews were conducted individually to ask the nurses about their experiences using the model. The data were analyzed qualitatively and inductively, and the relationships between the generated themes were illustrated.
Results: Three themes were generated regarding the nurses’ experiences using the model: “Objectivity and transformation of self-value,” “Deliberate practice tailored to individual circumstances,” and “Empowerment through interaction.” These relationships were shown to be mutually beneficial. Nurses also experienced conflicts between risk and recovery, and difficulties in collaborating with those who support clients.
Conclusion: Efforts are needed to popularize positive risk management and promote collaboration with those who support clients. Co-production-based training that incorporates lectures from people with mental disorders is thought to be more effective.
