Abstract/OtherAbstract:
The aim of this phenomenological study was to construct an interpretation of the experience of nurse-patient relationships, in the context of community psychiatric nursing. The purpose of this paper is to focus on the experience of the relationship from the perspective of the clients. Themes of 'having someone looking out for me', 'working in collaboration', and 'being understood and gaining understanding' were identified. This thematic structure was used to understand the meaning of the relationship for the clients. Implications for practice, education, clinical supervision and mental health services are discussed.
